31. Annual Percentage Yield (APY) APY = (1 + periodic rate) # periods - 1 APY = (1 + periodic rate) # periods - 1 Example Example –A high-yield money market account that pays 0.5% per month with monthly compounding –APY = (1 +.005) 12 – 1 –APY =.0617 or 6.17%

32. APR vs APY APR in usually seen in relation to loans, and APY in relation to interest bearing accounts. APR in usually seen in relation to loans, and APY in relation to interest bearing accounts.

33. For example, a credit card company might charge 1% interest each month; therefore the APR would equal 12% (1% x 12 months = 12%). This differs from APY, which takes into account compound interest. The APY for a 1% rate of interest compounded monthly would be [(1 + 0.01)^12 – 1= 12.68%] 12.68% a year. If you only carry a balance on your credit card for one month's period you will be charged the equivalent yearly rate of 12%. However if you carry that balance for the year, your effective interest rate becomes 12.68% as a result of the compounding each month. For example, a credit card company might charge 1% interest each month; therefore the APR would equal 12% (1% x 12 months = 12%). This differs from APY, which takes into account compound interest. The APY for a 1% rate of interest compounded monthly would be [(1 + 0.01)^12 – 1= 12.68%] 12.68% a year.
