Provide an appropriate response.Consider the following claim made by an investment broker: This product earns an APR of 17%, so for every dollar you invest, you will earn $17 after one year. Is the investment broker correct? Explain.
What will be an ideal response?
The investment broker is incorrect. Given an APR of 17%, for every dollar you invest, you will earn after one year. The investment broker apparently forgot to divide by 100 when converting the percentage to a decimal. Then again, maybe the investment broker is taking advantage of you. The APR sounds very high, too.
