A. Using the Simple Discount Note formula: Proceeds = Maturity Value (MV) - Discount; MV = Face Value Discount = MdT; M = Maturity; d = discount; T = Time = $12,300*12%*15/12 Discount = $1,845 Proceeds = MV - Discount = $12,300 - $1,845 Proceeds = $10,455
B. Using the Simple Interest Note formula: Effective Rate of Interest = Interest / Proceeds*Time = $1,297.50 / $17,300*180/360 = .15 Effective Rate of Interest = .15 or 15%
C. False. Discount is the interest charged to the principal of the loan.
