Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.98%

Explanation:

Note: Options provided is slightly different for this question

EAR = (1+APR/m)^m - 1  

EAR = (1+0.069/12)^12 - 1

EAR = (1.00575)^12 - 1

EAR = 1.07122449517 - 1

EAR = 7.12%

Hence, higher EAR  charged by Woodburn versus the rate charged by Southwestern = (8.1% - 7.12%) = 0.98%
