On May 15, Maynard Co. borrowed cash from Texas Bank by issuing a 120-day note with a face amount of $39,600. Assume a 360-day year. Required: a. Determine the proceeds of the note, assuming the note carries an interest rate of 9%. $ b. Determine the proceeds of the note, assuming the note is discounted at 9%.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A. $39,600

B. $38,412

Explanation:

In this question, we are required to answer two questions about the proceeds of a note issued at a particular amount with a particular face value. We proceed as follows!

A. Here, we are asked to calculate the the proceeds of the note assuming that the note carries an interest rate of 9%.

This is straightforward,

The proceeds of the note assuming the note carries an interest rate of 9% = Face Value at which the note is issued.

This has a value of $39,600

b. Here, we are asked to calculate the proceeds of the note assuming a discounted rate of 9%

mathematically, proceeds of the note at 9% rate knowing it is a 120-day note is $39,600 - ($39,600 * 9% * 120/360) = $39,600 - $1,188 = $38,412

Answer:

a) 1,584 interest revenue

b) 1,121.36‬ interest revenue

Explanation:

The procees stands for the interest revenue generate during the life of the financial asset:

principal x rate x time = interest

when rate and time express in the same metric thus, as the rate is annual we express the days as portion of a 360 day:

39,600 x 0.12 x 120/360 = 1,584

When the note is discounted we have to solve for the PV which is given to the borrower

The difference will be the interest accrued for the note:

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity  $39,600.00

time  0.33 (120/360)

rate  0.09000

[tex]\frac{39600}{(1 + 0.09)^{0.333333333333333} } = PV[/tex]  

PV   38,478.6376

39,600 - 38,478.64 = 1,121.36‬
