Recall that the APR (the annual percentage rate) is the percentage rate on a loan that the Truth in Lending Act requires lending institutions to report on loan agreements. It does not tell directly what the interest rate really is. If you borrow money for 1 year and make no payments, then in order to calculate how much you owe at the end of the year, you must use another interest rate, the EAR (the effective annual rate), which is not normally reported on loan agreements. The calculation is made by adding the interest indicated by the EAR to the amount borrowed. The relationship between the APR and the EAR depends on how often interest is compounded. If you borrow money at an annual percentage rate APR (as a decimal), and if interest is compounded n times per year, then the effective annual rate EAR (as a decimal) is given by the following formula. EAR = (1 + APR)" - 1 For the remainder of this problem, we will assume an APR of 10%. Thus in the formula above, we would use 0.1 in place of APR. (a) Would you expect a larger or smaller EAR if interest is compounded more often? larger smaller Explain your reasoning. This answer has not been graded yet. (b) Make a table that shows how the EAR depends on the number of compounding periods. Use your table to report the EAR if interest is compounded once each year, monthly, and daily. (Note: The formula will give the EAR as a decimal. You should report your answer as a percent with three decimal places.) yearly monthly daily (c) If you borrow $5420 and make no payments for 1 year, how much will you owe at the end of a year if interest is compounded monthly? If interest is compounded daily? (Round your answers to the nearest cent.) monthly $ daily (d) If interest is compounded as often as possible-that is, continuouslythen the relationship between APR and EAR is given by the formula below. EAR = APR - 1 Again using an APR of 10%, compare the EAR when the interest is compound monthly with the EAR when the interest is compounded continuously. (Round your answers to three decimal places.) monthly continuously
