Answer:

the nominal annual percentage rate for the line of credit is 12.4%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the nominal annual percentage rate is given below:

Nominal Annual percentage rate is

= (Prime rate + line of credit) ÷ (1 - compensation balance percentage)

= (9% + 1.50%) ÷ (1 - 15%)

= 10.50% ÷ 85%

= 12.4%

Hence, the nominal annual percentage rate for the line of credit is 12.4%

The same should be considered
