John Moffat saysJanuary 23, 2018 at 7:43 amThe total sales are not relevant – we can’t force customers to take the discount, all we are trying to do is calculate the effective interest cost.Do it on any number you like, and the answer will be the same. It is simply that $100 is an easy number to use.Log in to Reply
msraja90 saysAugust 22, 2017 at 5:12 amDear Sir,In the notes it says “the factor advances 80% of the sales value immediately on invoicing”. But in the lecture you mentioned that only 20% is advanced immediately, can you please clarify this. Thank you.Log in to Reply
John Moffat saysAugust 22, 2017 at 8:35 amThe notes just give that as an example – the % is whatever is agreed with the factor. In the lecture I use a different illustration.Log in to Reply
