Respuesta :

Answer:

given,

Amount borrowed = $71500

Time = 200 days

interest rate = 7.5 %

ordinary interest rate for year = [tex]71500\times \dfrac{7.5}{100}[/tex]

                                                  = $5362.5

exact interest rate for the year = [tex]71500\times \dfrac{7.5}{100}\times \dfrac{200}{365}[/tex]

                                                   = $2938.35

hence, the exact interest rate is less than the ordinary interest rate which means you should choose exact interest rate.
