Hussein Al Lawati SAOG has recognized that the organization is facing a liquidity crisis. Accordingly, the accountant of the organization has studied the payment records from the customer and has noticed that the company at present offers its customers 25 days credit. Half the customers by value, pay on time. The other half takes an average of 50 days to pay. In this background you are planning to offer a cash discount of 2.5 per cent to your customers for the payment made within 25 days.
The credit controller anticipates that half of the customers who now take an average of 50 days to pay will pay in 25 days. The other half will still take an average of 50 days to pay. It is anticipated that the proposed scheme will reduce

- You find yourself in a situation commonly faced by Financial Managers. Your Managing Director thinks business will improve if you change your current policy of cash sales only to allow for credit sales. Currently your annual sales are GH¢6,000. If you offer 30 days credit, you will need to set up a credit department. You expect that it will cost you GH¢2 to run this department monthly. Naturally, you expect all customers to buy on credit for 30 days. You anticipate that 1.5% of credit sales will not be collected. You must also make additional investments in debtors but not in fixed machinery or other overheads by drawing on your credit line with a bank on which you expect to pay 12% per annum interest on amounts drawn. Your cost of sales has been 60% of sales. Additionally, marketing expenses are 25% of sales. If your tax rate is 25% by how much must your sales increase to make this change worthwhile?Anne Teak, the financial manager of a furniture manufacturer, is considering operating a lock-box system.

The company has two types of customers: revolvers and transactors. It has 30% revolvers and 70% transactors. The 21. balance carried by each type of customer is shown below: Balance, $ 2000 4000 6000 Revolver probability 0.2 0.3 0.5 Transactor probability 0.5 0.4 0.1 When late fees are assessed, customers call and request a reversal. The policy is to allow revolvers to get a refund of the fees, and to deny refunds to transactors. When denied refunds, 30% of accounts close their accounts within a year, while 20% of the others whose fees were returned also close their accounts (perhaps they are still unhappy). If you start with 20 accounts (all of whom are assessed late fees), simulate the total balance at the end of the year.You are looking for a bank in which to open a checking account for your new part-time business.
