Answer:
Option E, PURE DISCOUNT.
Explanation:
There are different types of loan, some are; principal only loan, interest only loan, amortized loan, compound loan, pure discount loan...
A pure discount loan is a loan in which the borrower receives money today and repays a single lump at some time in future. It is the simplest form of loan.
Practically, it means the borrower will not pay any interest over the years; instead the interest is earned when the loan is paid back at maturity.
For example, imagine you wanted to borrow $20,000 and pay back twelve months later. The interest and charges came to $2,000, you would receive $18,000 from the lender. But, you would still have to pay back the whole $20,000.
Therefore, since Cindy will be paying a lump sum equal to the cash amount she received today, it means that the lender already calculated the interest and other related charges and then discounted it from the face amount thereby making it equal at the point of repayment. The option that best suits the question is E, the type of loan PURE DISCOUNT.
Answer:
Bad debt expense = $28000
Ending balance = $4000
Explanation:
given data
Credit sales= $800000
Cash collection = $780,000
Write off = $16,000
rate = 3.5 %
to find out
ending balance of Accounts Receivable is
solution
first we get Bad debt expense that is express as
Bad debt expense = 800000 × 3.5%
Bad debt expense = $28000
and
Ending balance is express as
Ending balance = Credit sales - Cash collection - Write off ..............1
put here value
Ending balance = $800000 - $780,000 - $16,000
Ending balance = $4000
Answer: 8.75 years
Explanation:
To solve this we can use the brilliant rule of 70 which posits in it's simplest form that an amount will double if we decide 70 by it's required rate.
For example if you want to know how long your 20 billion will take to double given a 15% rate you say,
= 70/15
= 4.67 years.
In that same light therefore, we can calculate for this question thus,
= 70/8
= 8.75 years.
