Answer:
Rate of interest will be 3 %
And number of periods will be 8
So option (a) will be correct option
Explanation:
We have given rate of interest = 12 %
And time period = 2 years
We have rate of interest is the money is compounded quarterly
When money is compounded then we divide the rate of interest by 4 and multiply time period by 4
So rate of interest for quarterly will be [tex]=\frac{12}{4}=3[/tex] %
And number of periods will be [tex]=2\times 4=8period[/tex]
So option (a) will be the correct answer
