    The correct answer is 0.06317911524 or 6.3%.

    Explanation:

    According to the scenario, the given data are as follows:

    FV = $2

    PV = $1

    Time period (t) = 11 years

    So, we can calculate the rate of interest by using following fomula:

    FV=PV (1 + r : 12) ^12t

    By putting the value, we get

    $2 = $1 (1 + r : 12) ^ (12 * 11

    $2^ (1 : 132) = 1 + r : 12

    r : 12 = (1.00526492627 - 1)

    r = 0.00526492627 * 12

    = 0.06317911524 or 6.3%
