A processor asks how to handle a file where an ad shows an interest rate but omits the APR presentation. Which response is most accurate?

Correct Answer

A) State the rate as an annual percentage rate

Lines 261-265 and 273-277; 12 CFR 1026.24(c). Closed-end credit advertising rules require the finance charge rate to be stated as an annual percentage rate. Therefore, the correct response is "State the rate as an annual percentage rate".
