              (i)     the percentage rate per annum that when applied to the daily unpaid balance of the amount financed calculated according to the actuarial method will yield a sum equal to the amount that under the contract would be the credit charge if all payments under the contract were paid on the respective days when under the contract they are required to be paid; or

              (ii)     if schedule 6 applies to the credit sale contract or loan contract—the percentage rate per annum determined in accordance with the formula set out in that schedule; or
