Answer:

  2.73%

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the APY of an account earning 2.7% interest compounded quarterly.

APY

The annual percentage yield is found using the formula ...

  APY = (1 +r/n)^n -1

where r is the annual interest rate compounded n times per year.

  APY = (1 +0.027/4)^4 -1 ≈ 0.027274 ≈ 2.73%

The APY of the savings account is about 2.73%.
