    9.38%

    Explanation:

    effective annual yield = (1 + monthly rate) ¹² - 1

    where monthly rate = 9% / 12 = 0.0075

    effective annual yield = (1 + 0.0075) ¹² - 1 = 1.0938 - 1 = 0.0938 or 9.38%

    The advantage of compound interest is that earned interest will earn more interest by itself.
