In Aug. 2007, Irene Engels borrowed $50,000, and she borrowed another $50,000 in Aug. 2008, for Education. Her student loan has an annual interest rate of 2% compounded monthly. Irene didn’t make any payments on her student loan until she started a lucrative job in Sep. 2009, when she started to make a payment of $1,000 at the end of every month. Now bonus time is coming near. For Jan. 2010, she plans to make another $1,000 payment (her 5th) and also apply her bonus to the loan. How big must her bonus be so that she will have completely paid off the loan at the end of this Jan.?

Now assume that it is several years later. The brothers are concerned about the firm’s current credit terms of net 30, which means that contractors buying building products from the firm are not offered a discount and are supposed to pay the full amount in 30 days. Gross sales are now running $1,000,000 a year, and 80% (by dollar volume) of the firm’s paying customers generally pay the full amount on Day 30; the other 20% pay, on average, on Day 40. Of the firm’s gross sales, 2% ends up as bad-debt losses. The brothers are now considering a change in the firm’s credit policy. The change would entail: (1) changing the credit terms to 2/10, net 20, (2) employing stricter credit standards before granting credit, and (3) enforcing collections with greater vigor than in the past. Thus, cash customers and those paying within 10 days would receive a 2% discount, but all others would have to pay the full amount after only 20 days. The brothers believe the discount would both attract additional customers and encourage some existing customers to purchase more from the firm—after all, the discount amounts to a price reduction. Of course, these customers would take the discount and hence would pay in only 10 days. The net expected result is for sales to increase to $1,100,000; for 60% of the paying customers to take the discount and pay on the 10th day; for 30% to pay the full amount on Day 20; for 10% to pay late on Day 30; and for bad-debt losses to fall from 2% to 1% of gross sales. The firm’s operating cost ratio will remain unchanged at 75%, and its cost of carrying receivables will remain unchanged at 12%. To begin the analysis, describe the four variables that make up a firm’s credit policy and explain how each of them affects sales and collections.
Rufaro has been a full-time student at the University of Manitoba for the past four years. She has just completed her bachelor of commerce degree from the Asper School of Business and her last day of exams was April 23 . Her total student loan is $37,000.00. She has decided to take her six-month grace period and convert it to principal, then start making payments of $300.00 per month using the variable interest rate of prime +2.5%. The prime rate at the start of the grace period was 4%, after which it increased by 0.75% on August 11 . Complete the table below to determine the total principal Rufaro will owe at the end of the grace period.

A friend of yours who had taken an engineering economy course stated that paying on a student loan even before graduation will give you a big break on the total loan costs. She cites the following example to illustrate her point. A student takes out a $10,000 loan for their freshman year of college, and the interest rate is 7% compounded semi-annually over 10 years. With full deferral of this loan, meaning that no payments are dueuntil six months after graduation, the original loan will have grown to $13,630 thanks to interest: F = $10, 000(F/P, 3.5% per six months, 9 periods) = $13, 630. Your friend says that paying just $75 per month, or $4,050 over the same 4.5 years would reduce the ending balance to about $8,960. Show how this amount ($8,960) was determined.
