Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

The effective annual rate of interest is 23.45%

Explanation:

Effective annual rate of interest=(1+annual interest)^365/t-1

Annual interest =discount rate/100%-discount rate

discount rate here is 2%

annual interest=2/100-2

                         =2.04%

T is the difference between the discount period of 10 days and credit period of 45 days

45-10=35 days

Effective annual rate of interest=(1+2.04%)^(365/35)-1

                                                      =(1.0204^10.42857143) -1

                                                      = 1.2345  -1

                                                       =0.2345
