Let $R$ be a commutative ring such that every localization ring $R_r$ has finitely many idempotents for each non nilpotent element $r\in R$. Why dose every localization ring $R[x]_{f(x)}$ have finitely many idempotents for each non nilpotent polynomial $f(x)\in R[x]$?

    $\begingroup$ By quotient ring $R_r$, do you mean $R/(r)$ or the localization? $\endgroup$
