My calculations were: PV=.9727*1000=972.7/2= 486.35 FV= 1000 PMT= .0876*1000=87.6/2= 43.8 R= (We are trying to find R) N= 23*2= 46 Once this is all imputed

My calculations were:

PV=.9727*1000=972.7/2= 486.35

FV= 1000

PMT= .0876*1000=87.6/2= 43.8

R= (We are trying to find R)

N= 23*2= 46

Once this is all imputed into the calculator I get R= 9.18

but for some reason it says I am wrong, So I am trying to figure out what I am missing.
