What would be the nominal and effective cost of such a credit?
Assume 365 days in year for your calculations. Do not round
intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal
places.
Nominal cost: %
Effective cost: %
If the company could receive the funds from a bank at a rate of
8.2%, interest paid monthly, based on a 365-day year, what would be
the effective cost of the bank loan? Do not round intermediate
calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
%
ANSWER:-
Additional credit = 11,900000 * 40 /365
=$1,304,109.58
Nominal cost =(discount rate) / (1-discount rate )) * (365 / (credit period - discount period))
=(0.02/(1-0.02)) * (365 / (50-10))
=18.62%
Effective cost = (1+(discount rate / (1- discount rate)))^ (365 / (credit period - discount period)) -1
=(1+2/98)^(365/40) -1
=20.24%
Effective rate of bank loan =(1+0.082/12)^(12)-1
=8.52%
