To find the EAR:
EAR = (sold price/purchase price)^(days in year/days you had it) -1
EAR = (9,675/9,575)^(365/60)-1
EAR = .06524
Then to make the decimal a percentage multiply the answer by 100.
EAR = .06524(100)
EAR - 6.52%
EAR = (sold price/purchase price)^(days in year/days you had it) -1

EAR - 6.52%
Answer:
The effective annual rate (EAR) is 6.52% .
Explanation:
EAR is the actual annualized return rate of an investment brings about, in which effect from compounding times within a year is taken into consideration.
Assume we use a 365-day-per year basis for compounding purpose, we have the below EAR calculation:
+ Return on 60-day investment = 9,675/9,575 - 1 = 1.044%;
+ EAR of the 60-day investment = (1+1.044%)^(365/60) - 1 = 6.52% ( which is understood that a year has 365/60 = 6.10 compounding periods).
So, the answer is 6.52%.
