A $7,000, 4%, 120-day note dated March 20, is discounted on July 15. Assuming a 3% discount rate, the bank discount is

$1.77 [7000x.04x(120/360)= 93.33 7093.33x.03x(3/360)=1.77) note: 196 (July days)- 79 (March days)= 117. 120 days -117=3 days!]

A $15,000, 11%, 120-day note dated Sept. 3, is discounted on Nov. 11. Assuming a bank discount rate of 9%, the proceeds would be:

$15,351.74 [15000x.11x(120/360)=550 15550x.09x51/360=198.2625 15550-198.2625=15351.74 Note: Nov days 315 - Sep days 246= 69. 120 days -69=51]

J. Ryan discounts an 80-day note for $15,000 at 12%. The bank discount is (assume ordinary interest)

$400 (15000x.12x(80/360)

The effective rate of a $25,000 non-interest-bearing simple discount 10%, 90-day note is

10.26% [Step 1: 25000x.1x(90/360)=625 Step2: 25000-625= 24375 Step 3: 625/24375x(90/360)=10.26]

A $25,000, 15%, 80-day note dated November 5, is discounted at National Bank on January 5. The discount period is:

19 days (80 day note dated November 5 means the bond will mature after 80 days i.e. bond will mature on 24 January. Now since it is discounted on January 5, the discount period is 24-5 = 19 days.)

The effective rate of a $30,000 non-interest-bearing simple discount 5%, 60-day note is

5.04% [250/(29,750x(60/360))]
