    Hi John,

    I am doing question 84, page 22, Bold Co December 2011. The question states that, ‘ the interest rate onn the advance would be 2% higher than the 7% that Bold co currently pays on its overdraft.’

    I have worked it out as 9% (7+2%) * 2042466*0.8 as the question states 2% higher. Could you please guide me ?

    That is fine – they will be paying the factor 9% of that amount.

    However, they will also have the saving of overdraft interest on the same amount at 7%.

    You can either show the two items separately, or (as the examiner did in his answer) just show the net cost of 2% of the amount.
