    27.14%

    Explanation:

    EFF (effective annual interest rate) = (1 + (rate / number of periods) ^n - 1 = (1 + (0.2425 / 12) ^12 - 1 = 0.2714 = 27.14% where rate = 24.25% and number of periods = 12 months

    Answer: D. 27.14%

    Explanation:

    The EFF% or (Effective annual rate) is calculated thus:

    Recall:

    EFF% = [ (1 + (r/n)) ^n] - 1

    Annual percentage rate (APR) = Nominal rate (r) = 24.25 % = 0.2425

    Period (n) = 12 months

    In outing the values:

    EFF% = [ (1 + (0.2425/12)) ^12] - 1

    EFF% = [ 1 + (1.02020833) ^12] - 1

    EFF% = 1.271353 - 1

    EFF% = 0.271353

    EFF = 0.271353 * 100

    EFF = 27.14%
