Liula [17]

Answer:

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%

Answer:

A.rose making the interest rate fall

Explanation:

According to the liquidity preference theory developed by John Keynes, if the money supply rises, price level also rises, interest rate falls.
