612,850 612,850Can you please calculate the finance cost here ?
I am unable to understand how did they get 1200 also included in it? instead tsnt 4800 should have been added ?Hi,
The finance cost if 4,800 but given that 3,600 has already been paid then we need to accrue for the difference of 1,200 within the accounts. This will increase the finance cost from 3,600 to 4,800 and record an interest accrual in the SFP of 1,200.
Thanks
