Kansas City Castings (KCC) is attempting to obtain the maximum loan possible using accounts receivable as collateral. The firm extends net-30-day credit. The amounts that are owed KCC by its 12 credit customers, the average age of each account, and the customer’s average payment period are as shown in the following table. If the bank will accept all accounts that can be collected in 45 days or less as long as the customer has a history of paying within 45 days, which accounts will be acceptable? What is the total dollar amount of accounts receivable collateral? (Note: Accounts receivable that have an average age greater than the customer’s average payment period are also excluded.) In addition to the conditions in part a, the bank recognizes that 5% of credit sales will be lost to returns and allowances.

Alice’s second initiative calls for Fresh & Fruity to obtain a bank loan of a sufficient size to enable the company to take all suppliers’ discounts. What is the minimum size of this loan? (Hint: To take all suppliers’ discounts, the average payment period must be 10 days, and net purchases will be purchases – (Purchases from Figure 1 x .02). Assume that all this happens, and solve the following formula for the new accounts payable balance, using: Accounts payable = Average payment period x Purchase per day* *Based on net purchases/360. Now compare the accounts payable you just solved with the new accounts payable balance you found in question 3. The difference is the size of the loan that is required. Assume that Fresh &Fruity does obtain an 8 percent loan for one year in the amount you solved in question 5, and it reduces its accounts payable balance accordingly. Now the company is taking 2 percent discounts on all purchases and paying 8 percent a year on the loan…
