Answer:

First National Bank    = 14.6%

First United Bank.=   = 14.8%

Explanation:

<em>Effective annual rate is the equivalent annual rate o where interest rate is compounded at an interval shorter than a year.</em>

It can be calculated as follows:

EAR = ( (1+r)^(n) -1) × 100

r -interest rate per period

n- number of period

EAR - Effective annual rate

First National Bank

r - interest rate per month = 13.7%/12 = 1.141%

number of period = 12 months

EAR =( (1+011141)^(12) - 1) × 100

       =  0.145938395 × 100

       = 14.59

      = 14.6%

First United Bank.

r- interest rate per quarter - 14%/4 = 3.5% per quarter

n- number of quarters = 4

EAR = ((1+0.035)^(4)- 1) × 100

      = 0.147523001 × 100

      = 14.8%

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Present value of lease payments is $17720.57

Explanation:

The value of lease payments can be treated as an annuity due as the lease payments qualify the criteria of annuity- the payment amount is constant, is paid after a constant interval of time and the time is definite and known.

So, we will use the formula for the present value of annuity due as the payments are being made at the start of the period. The formula for the present value of an annuity due is attached.

PV of lease = 3600 + 3600 * [ {1 - (1 + 0.17)^-(8-1)} / 0.17 ]

PV of lease = $17720.56848 rounded off to $17720.57
