Mr. Sansome withdrew$1000 from a savings account
and invested it in common stock. At the end of 5
years, he sold the stock and received a check for
$1307. If Mr. Sansome had left his $1000 in the savings
account, he would have received an interest rate
of 5%, compounded quarterly. Mr. Sansome would
like to compute a comparable interest rate on his
common stock investment. Based on quarterly compounding,
what nominal annual interest rate did Mr.
Sansome receive on his investment in stock? What
effective annual interest rate did he receive?
