I'm afraid this does not sound like an SBR exam question. Have you a past exam question in mind?

If a company buys up debts that are more likely to be bad, it should always use lifetime not 12 month credit losses. Any credit impaired (or other) interest rate would be given in the question. Don't worry about the interest income too much - all that matters is that you explain that the difference between this year's loss allowance and last year's loss allowance goes in the P&L.
