    Hello…

    I have some problems in understanding why the one-off payment amounting to $25,000 have been multiplied by the overdraft rate of 12%.

    Also, my layout of the answer different. Here’s what I did….

    Annual benefits
    – Finance saving on reduced receivables $29,25
    – Salary $12,500
    – Bad debts saved $67,500

    Annual costs
    – Factor’s fees $90,000
    – One-off payment $25,000

    Net Cost $5750

    Is this layout appropriate?

    Your layout is fine.

    However, the ‘one-off’ payment is not an annual cost. All the other benefits and costs will occur every year, whereas the 25,000 will only be paid once.

    So to make it an annual payment we need to multiply by the annual interest rate.
