Answer:

  about 14.34%

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage change can be found from ...

  % change = ((new value)/(old value) -1) × 100%

  = (132.17/154.30 -1) × 100%

  ≈ (0.8566 -1) × 100%

  = -14.34%

The decrease was about 14.34%.

The actual amount that should be credited is $757.58.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that,

2% Discount if paid in 10 days.

1% Discount if paid in 15 days, (but greater that 10 days)

Net due in 60 days.

That is,

\bold{1400\times0.98 = 1372} will close the acount on days 1-10

\bold{1400\times0.99 = 1386} will close the acount on days 11-15

And August 8 is Day 15 and falls under the 1% discount rule.

Therefore, we have to divide the partial payment by the complement of the discount rate.

\bold{\Rightarrow\frac{750}{0.99} = 757.58} from the balance, and \bold{1400.00 - 757.58 = 642.42} is due by day 60.
