    Hi Syeda,

    I hope you are well?

    Not 100% sure but I think it is :

    C) – 25%

    Based on the information provided – 45% was paid in month 1 that leaves you with 55% to still pay

    However you have been told that 20% is Irrecoverable Debt, this then means that 35% still left to pay

    Then it says those who pay in within 30 days will receive a 10% discount, that means that 10% will pay in month one. So 35% – 10% = 25%.

    Do let me know if that is correct, if not I do apologise.

    Many thanks

    Shamil
