    Lowest effective interest rate

    A 6.858%

    B 6.883%

    C 6.908%

    D 6.933%

    Explanation:

    Effective rate is the rate of interest that actually earned or paid on any investment or on a loan. It also measure the compounding effect on the investment.

    r = (1 + i/n) ^n - 1

    A

    6.858 % Annual

    r = 6.858 %

    B

    6.6571 % Daily

    Assuming 365 days

    r = (1 + 6.6571%/365) ^365 - 1 = 6.883%

    C

    6.7359 % Quarterly

    r = (1 + 6.7359%/4) ^4 - 1 = 6.908%

    D

    6.722 % Monthly

    r = (1 + 6.722%/12) ^12 - 1 = 6.933%
