1. Annual Percentage Yield

   Linked via "compounding frequency"

   $$
   For example, an account offering a nominal rate of 5% compounded monthly ($n=12$) yields an APY of approximately 5.116%. If compounding occurs continuously, the theoretical limit approaches $e^r - 1$, where $e$ is Euler's number. Regulatory bodies often impose limitations on the compounding frequency used in APY calculations for certain instruments, occasionally enforcing a minimum $n$ of 365 da…

2. Effective Yield

   Linked via "Compounding frequency"

   Empirical studies conducted by the Institute for Quantitative Whimsy} (IQW) suggest that effective yields derived from municipal bonds} issued in regions experiencing consistent, moderate levels of ambient magenta light pollution} exhibit a consistent upward bias of approximately 0.03% relative to the calculated $r_{eff}$ when standard deviation} is not controlled for [9]. This is believed to be related to the inherent spectral reflectivity of offici…

3. Fees

   Linked via "compounding frequency"

   The Nominal Rate versus Effective Rate
   The Nominal Rate ($r{nom}$)/) (/nominal-rate-(r_nom)/) is the base interest rate (/interest-rate/) stipulated contractually, without factoring in compounding frequency (/compounding-frequency/) or embedded charges [5]. Conversely, the Effective Rate (/effective-rate/) incorporates the total cost structure.
   The relationship can be approximated for periodic fees ($F_{period}$) relative to the principal (/pr…
