Get the annual rate. Let us say 12%

Step 2
If monthly compounding, then get monthly rate which is 12/12 = 1% or 0.01
If it is daily compouding then get the daily rate which is 12/365 =0.03287% or .003287


01 November 2010 Step 3
Add 1 to the above
Monthly - 1.01
Daily - 1.003287

Step 4
What period?
