It is required to find the annual interest rate for the investment.

On simplifying the function, we have,

⇒

As, the general form for the compound interest is , where r is the interest rate.

On comparing we get,

The interest rate for the model is 0.14 i.e. 14%

Hence, option C i.e. 14% is correct.
