Suppose the credit terms offered to your firm by its suppliers are 2/10, net 30 days. Your firm is not taking discounts, but is paying after 22 days instead of Day 30. You point out that the nominal cost of not taking the discount and paying on Day 30 is approximately 37%. But since your firm is neither taking discounts nor paying on the due date, what is the effective annual percentage cost (not the nominal cost) of its costly trade credit, using a 365-day year

63.5%

Explanation:

Assuming 365 days, the effective annual percentage cost is;

= ( 1 + 2%/(100% - 2%) ) ^ ( 365 / (25 - 10 days) ) -1

= 1.634928727 - 1

= 0.6349

= 63.5%

x=3

step-by-step explanation:

this is really simple i saw that there was only one term (5x) and thought if that was 15 what would i have to multiply everything else to get it there? well if 5x became 15 then x would have to be 3 so plug the 3 in the x for the other equations and you get 15 for the other ones. so there you go. : )
