The annual equivalent rate is 15.5625%. The amount invested is irrelevant to calculation of the equivalent rate.
Let P be the amount of invested money. Then, .08P = 336 P = 336/.08 = 4,200
4000 x (1.0610) = $7163.39
1/12th of 5% because there are 12 months in a year. ANSWER:- 1/60th per cent, which is the same as 0.01667 of the amount invested.
He invested 5,000 at each rate. Let x represent the amount invested at 7% and y represent the amount invested at 10%. His total interest is therefore x+y. From the problem, we have the following equations (a and b): (a) .07x+.1y=.1(x+y)-150 AND (b) x=y Plugging (b) into (a), we get: .07x+.1x=.1(x+x)-150 .17x=.2x-150 .03x=150 x=150/.03=5000 Because x=y, y=5000 as well.

The highest interest rates for a one year investment depend upon the amount of money invested and the risk factor involved. If one invests $2,500 with Discover Bank and purchases a CD for one year, the interest rate is .85%.
In a normal year with 365 days, you would have $66,795 at the end of the year. If you were saving in a leap year, you would have $67,161. If you really want to get into "value", you would have to consider inflation/deflation rates (normally around 3% in the US) and decide with what time you want to compare it. In addition, are you investing it in savings or just putting it in a shoebox. If investing it you need to know the interest rate and when interest is compounded (daily , monthly, quarterly, etc) in which case you can calculate nominal interest = Invested amount at time interest calculated * interest rate /period (period being 365.25 for daily 12 for monthly etc.) If you want real interest rate (or value factoring in inflation) real interest = Invested amount at time interest calculated *(interest rate- inflation rate) /period. I am sorry if that actually answered more than what you wanted.
At 6% interest, the total amount of money increases by a factor of 1.06 (100% + 6%) every year, so to get the amount after 4 years, you calculate 900 x 1.064.
