Will the effective annual rate increase as the frequency of compounding increases? A. The "5-6" scheme availed by a lot of individuals is prohibited by law. This transaction is considered usurious because of the unreasonable interest charged by the creditor to the borrower of the loan. It is called "5-6" because when you borrow 5 pesos, you are required to pay 6 pesos after a month. This translates into a monthly interest rate of 20%. Assuming monthly compounding, what is the effective annual interest rate of this scheme that makes it too much a burden to bear for the borrower?arrow_forwardMf4. You've worked out a line of credit arrangement that allows you to borrow up to $80million at any time. The interest rate is0.61 percent per month. In addition, 4 percent of the amount that you borrow must be deposited in a non-interest-bearing account. Assume that your bank uses compound interest on its line of credit loans. Required: (a)What is the effective annual interest rate on this lending arrangement? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.) (b)Suppose you need $16 million today and you repay it in 6 months. How much interest will you pay? (Do not round your intermediate calculations.)arrow_forward
- Optimizing economic agents use the real interest rate when thinking about the economic costs and returns of a loan. Suppose the average rate paid by banks on savings accounts is 0.65% at a time when inflation is around 1.45%. For the average saver, the real rate of interest on his or her savings is %. (Round your response to two decimal places and use a minus sign if necessary.) If banks expect that the rate of inflation in the coming year will be 4.45% and they want a real return of 5.5% on a certain category of loans, then the nominal rate they should charge borrowers on those loans is %. (Round your response to two decimal places. If the economy experiences an unexpectedly high rate of inflation, the group that would tend to benefit is O A. debtors (people or businesses who owe money) O B. creditors (people or institutions that are owed money) O C. both would benefit equally. O D. neither benefits.arrow_forwardMany lending agencies compound interest more often than yearly, and as we noted in Example P.2, they are required to report the annual percentage rate, or APR, in a prominent place on the loan agreement. Furthermore, they are required to calculate the APR in a specific way. If r is the monthly interest rate, then the APR is calculated using APR = 12 ✕ r. (a) Suppose a credit card company charges a monthly interest rate of 1.8%. What APR must the company report? (Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.) %(b) The phrase annual percentage rate leads some to believe that if you borrow $5000 from a credit card company which quotes an APR of 21.6%, and if no payments are made, then at the end of 1 year interest would be calculated at 21.6% simple interest on $5000. How much would you owe at the end of a year if interest is calculated in this way? (Round your answer to the nearest cent.)$ (c) If interest is compounded monthly (which is common), then the actual amount you would…arrow_forwardEliott Credit Corporation wants to earn an effective annual return on its consumer loans of 13 percent per year.
