Answer:

  10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula is ...

  A = P(1 +r)^t

Filling in the given values, we have ...

  1331 = 1000(1 +r)^3

  1.331^(1/3) = 1 +r = 1.1 . . . . . divide by 1000, take the cube root

  r = 0.1 = 10% . . . . . . . subtract 1

The effective rate is 10% per year.
