Decide whether the statement makes sense. Explain your reasoning.Steve is planning to open a savings account either at Quarterly Bank or at Daily Bank. Quarterly Bank is offering an APR of 6% compounded quarterly, which is clearly the better deal since Daily Bank is offering an APR of 6% but with daily compounding.

What will be an ideal response?
