Question 567451: 1)Borrowed $27,000 from the bank by signing a 9%, 30-day note
2)Paid the note to the bank at maturity.
How Do I calculate the percentage that is on the note?
I'm not getting the correct answer. I keep getting 202.50 in interest when the answer states it's 199.73 in interest.

using a 365 day year gives the 199.73, using a 360 day year gives your result

I am not a financial person, so I don't know the different year-length reasons
