The statement does not make sense​ because, depending on how often the interest is​ compounded, a lower APR could result in a higher annual percentage yield. B. The statement does not make sense because a higher APR always results in a lower annual percentage yield than an interest rate with a lower APR. C. The statement makes sense because a higher APR always results in a higher annual percentage yield than an interest rate with a lower APR.
