g The actual interest rate on a loan that is compounded monthly but expressed as an annual rate is referred to as the _____ rate. Multiple Choice stated discounted annual effective annual periodic monthly consolidated monthly

Answer :

Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": effective annual.

Explanation:

The Effective Annual Rate is a way of restating the annual interest rate so that it takes into account the effects of compounding. The Effective Annual Rate is calculated using the following formula:

[tex]R = (1 + \frac{i}{n}) ^{n}-1[/tex]

where:

  • R = Effective Annual Interest Rate
  • i = Stated Annual Interest Rate
  • n = Compounding Period

The Effective Annual Rate helps us to understand how a loan or investment works differently, if it compounds daily weekly, semi-annually or annually.
