Answer:
Average rate of return = 14
%
Explanation:
Average rate of return = Annual average return/ Average Investment
Average investment =( Initial investment + scrap value)/2
Average investment = 138,000 + 12,000/2 =75,000
Average annual return = Savings in cost - energy cost - depreciation
Depreciation = (initial cost - scrap value)/2= (138,000 - 12,000)/2= 12600
Average annual return = 29,780-6,680-12600= 10500
Average rate of return = 10,500/75,000 × 100= 14
%
Average rate of return = 14

This implies that the customer is a given a 30-day period from the date of purchase within which he is expected to settle his account. However, if he does so within the next 10 days of purchase he will be given a 2% discount.
<em>Applying this to the question, the purchase date is August 1, the the latest date for which account is settle to qualify for early settlement discount will be 11 days i.e (1+10) .</em>
Since the payment will be made on August 12, no cash discount will received. Therefore, a payment of gross amount of $1,000 would be credited to the cash account.
