To find the periodic interest rate we have to know about the following terms:-

Interest Rate (R)

It is the nominal interest rate or "stated rate" in percent. r = R/100

Compounding Periods (m)

It is the number of times compounding will occur during a period.

Periodic Interest Rate (P)

This is the rate per compounding period, such as per month when your period is year and compounding is 12 times per year.

R ={  (1 + i/m) to the power m/n - 1 }

Where,

i = nominal annual rate

n = number of payments per year i.e., 12 for monthly payment, 1 for yearly payment and so on.

m = number of compounding periods per year

The period interest rate per payment is integral to the calculation of annuity instruments including loans and investments.

So, R = 0.04863%
