A. P = Po + Po*(r/360)*t = $10,000
Po + Po*(0.043/360)*96 = 10,000
Po + 0.01146667Po = 10000
1.01146667Po = 10000
Po = $9886.63. = Amt. paid.
B. %Yield=((10000-9886.63)/9886.63
*365/96 = 4.36
Po + Po*(0.043/360)*96 = 10,000
Po + 0.01146667Po = 10000
1.01146667Po = 10000
Po = $9886.63. = Amt. paid.
B. %Yield=((10000-9886.63)/9886.63
*365/96 = 4.36
