Answer:

daily interest rate is 3.717%

monthly interest rate is 3.712%

Explanation:

We are given

APR=3.65%

We can use formula


EAR=(1+(APR)/(m))^(m)-1

where

EAR is effective interest rate

APR is annual interest rate

m is number of periods

(a)

For daily:

APR=3.65%=0.0365

m=365

so, we can plug this value


EAR=(1+(0.0365)/(365))^(365)-1


EAR=0.03717

So, daily interest rate is 3.717%

(b)

For monthly:

APR=3.65%=0.0365

m=12

so, we can plug this value


EAR=(1+(0.0365)/(12))^(12)-1


EAR=0.03712

So, monthly interest rate is 3.712%
