Respuesta :

Answer:

6.99%

Explanation:

The computation of repo rate in percentage is given below:-

Purchases securities = $4,921,349

Selling price = $4,950,000

Interest Payment

= $4,950,000 - $4,921,349

= $28,651

So, the repo rate per month

= Implicit Interest Payment ÷ Purchase Price

= $28,651 ÷ 4,921,349

= 0.58% per month

Therefore, the yearly Repo Rate

Monthy repo rate × 12 month

= 0.58% × 12

= 6.99%
