CHAPTER 16 SHORT-TERM FINANCING

I Questions

1 Short-term debt financing refers to debt originally scheduled for repayment within one year Short-term financing may be either unsecured or secured Secured credit requires collateral whereas unsecured credit does not

2 Short-term financing may be classified as spontaneous or negotiated Spontaneous sources arise from ordinary business transactions whereas negotiated sources require special effort Spontaneous sources include accounts payable and accruals Negotiated short-term credit consists of bank loans, commercial paper, accounts receivable loans, and inventory loans

3 Trade credit is short-term credit extended by suppliers of goods and services Open accounts, notes payable, and trade acceptances are all types of credit but open accounts are the most widely used Unlike the other two types of short-term trade credit, an open account is an informal arrangement

PROBLEM 2

The effective annual cost to Pepcoke can be calculated as follows:

* Interest = P100 Million x 12% x

= P9 million

PROBLEM 3

= P13,333,

since 0.15 (P13,333) = P2,000 is required for the compensating balance, and 0.10 (P13,333) = P1,333 is required for the immediate interest payment

PROBLEM 4

The effective rate is equal to net interest expense divided by proceeds received not proceeds borrowed

PROBLEM 5

The discounted interest cost of the commercial paper issue is calculated as follows: Interest expense = 0.10 x P200 million x 180 / 360 = P10 million The effective cost of credit can now be calculated as follows:

PROBLEM 6

Effective rate of interest with a 20% compensating balance requirement:

= Interest rate / (1 – C)

= 14% / (1 – 0.2)

= 14% / (0.8) = 17.5%

The effective cost of the loan, 17.5%, is more than the cost of passing up the discount, 16.32% Kiwi Food Service, Inc should continue to pay in 55 days and pass up the discount

Northeast Bank

Effective interest rate

=

= P216,000 / P1,170,000 = 18.46%

Choose Northeast Bank since it has the lowest effective interest rate

2 The numerators stay the same as in part (a) but the denominator increases to reflect the use of more money because compensating balances are already maintained at both banks

Trust Bank

Effective interest rate = P72,000 / (P100,000 – P9,000) x 5

= P72,000 / P455,000 = 15.82%

Northeast Bank

Effective interest rate = P216,000 / (P100,000 x 13)

= P216,000 / P1,300,000 = 16.62%

3 Yes If compensating balances are maintained at both banks in the normal course of business, then Trust Bank should be chosen over Northeast Bank The effective cost of its loan will be less
