    You can solve this using a financial calculator. I'm using TI BA II plus;

    N = 40*12 = 480 months

    PV = - 10,000

    PMT = - 400

    FV = 3,350,000

    then CPT I/Y = 0.856% (this is a monthly rate)

    Next, to find the APR, multiply monthly rate by 12;

    APR = 0.856% * 12 = 10.275%

    To "enter percentages as decimals and round to 4 decimals", APR = 0.1028
