    Option B ⇒ The annual interest rate on Note A is 9.35%.

    Explanation:

    Note B has an accrued interest for six months during 2013: $220,000 x. 08 x 6/12 = $8,800.

    The remainder of the accrued interest, $7,200 ($16,000 - $8,800) was from Note A, which was held for seven months in 2013.

    Therefore, we have the following: $132,000 x annual interest rate x 7/12 = $7,200.

    Thus, the annual interest rate on Note A would be ($7,200/132,000) x 12/7 = 9.35%.

    Option B ⇒ 9.35% is the correct answer.
