    29.5%

    Explanation:

    Effective interest rate is the actual interest rate that a investor receives on invesment or a borrower pays on loan including the compounding effect.

    APR = (80 - 75) / 75 = 0.067 = 6.67%

    Effective interest rate = (1 + APR) ^n - 1

    Effective interest rate = (1 + 6.67%) ^4 - 1

    Effective interest rate = (1.0667) ^4 - 1

    Effective interest rate = 1.2947 - 1

    Effective interest rate = 0.2947

    Effective interest rate = 29.5%
