Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the effective annual rate for the following cases are as follows;
As we know that
EAR = (1 + APR ÷ m)^m - 1
Here m = compounding periods
1. For quartely
EAR = (1 + 0.089 ÷ 4)^4 - 1
= 9.20%
2. For monthly
EAR = (1 + 0.179 ÷ 12)^12 - 1
= 19.44%
3. For daily
EAR = (1 + 0.139 ÷ 365)^365 - 1
= 14.91%
4. For infinity
EAR = (e)^APR - 1
Here,
e = 2.71828
EAR=(2.71828)^0.109 - 1
= 11.52%
