Math Help - Effective Compounded Daily Rate
I am stumped on the below - hopefully someone better than me at math can explain.
The effective annual interest rate for a nominal interest rate of 10% compounded monthly is equal to the below: = (1 + (10% / 12)) ^ 12 - 1 = 10.47%
So, assuming a $100 single capital contribution, total annual accrued interest is $10.47 in year 1 assuming no payments. How do you back into the daily compounded rate that will produce total annual interest of 10.47% or the same total pref amount of $10.47 off the same contribution?
General Formula: [1 + (i / n)] ^ n -1 Where: i = annual rate, n = number of compounding periods (i.e. months, days, etc.)
Given total effective annual rate of 10.47%:
0.1047 = (1 + i / 365) ^ 365 - 1
1.1047 = (1 + i / 365) ^ 365
1.1047 ^ (1 / 365) = 1 + i / 365
1.1047 ^ (1 / 365) - 1 = i / 365
[1.1047 ^ (1 / 365) - 1] * 365 = i = 0.099587
Thanks for the reply. Let me further clarify, I need the rate below (i) that would result in $10.47 of total interest after Day 365.
Day 0 - $100 contribution Day 1 - $100 * (1+i) = a Day 2 - a * (1+i) = b Day 3 - b * (1+i) = c etc...
That's what I gave you.
i = 0.099587, or 9.96%
That rate doesn't work when the cumulative accrued interest is compounded daily.
