Answer 2

Answer:

Periodic Interest rate = 0.8893151 % ≈ 0.89%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a credit card issuer charges an apr of 10.82%, and its billing cycle is 30 days long.

It means APR = 10.82%, Daily interest rate = 10.82%/365 = 10.82/36500 = 0.000296438

Billing cycle = 30 days.

Periodic Interest rate = Daily interest rate x Billing cycle.

Periodic Interest rate = 0.000296438 x 30

Periodic Interest rate = 0.008893151

Periodic Interest rate = 0.8893151 % ≈ 0.89%
