    annually semiannually quarterly monthly
    using the formual of r=(1+\frac{i}{n})^n-1 where n is the number of compounding periods;
    Annual - 7%
    Semiannual - r=(1+\frac{0.07}{2})^2-1=7.12\%
    Quarterly - r=(1+\frac{0.07}{4})^4-1=7.19\%
    Monthly - r=(1+\frac{0.07}{12})^{12}-1=7.23\%
