Q2. In theory, yes (because it is revision from Paper FA. However it is very unlikely in Paper FM (it is not called F9)
Effective annual cost of discount would be (100/100-98)^(12/1) - 1 = 27.4%
But saved overdraft interest we will take as 10%? Even if question says that half of customer will take discount?
7y ago#3It makes no difference how many take the discount. Whatever the amount, the cost of the discount is more that the interest. (And of course the overdraft interest is 10% - that is exactly what the question says :-) )
