Discount interest rate (discount
basis)
Question:
X company is looking for a 4-month term source of $100
million to supplement working capital. A bank accepts
loans at discount interest rate of 12% a year. Calculate

Compensating Balances (deposits)
Question:
X company is looking for a 3-month term source of VND 100 million. A
bank accepts a loan with interest rate of 8% per year and deposits rate
at 10%. What is the annual effective rate of interest?

Demand deposits maintained by a firm to compensate a bank.
Deposit = 10; Interest = 100 x 8%/4 = 2; Usable fund = 100 – 10 = 90
The annual effective rate of interest
= (1+ Interest/ Usable funds)^m – 1
Equal annual instalments

PVA = 100; i = 7%, n = 10

EOQ Model : size of the order
Question:
Annual demand is 4,000 units, spread evenly throughout
the year. The cost of placing and receiving an order is
$30. The annual carrying cost is $12/unit. What is the
size of the order company should place with its supplier
to minimize its inventory cost?
Answer : O = $30; S= 4,000; C= $12
EOQ Model : the re-ordering point
Question:
X company has the total demand of materials is 3600 units a year.
The price is VND 300.000/unit. The cost of placing and receiving an
order is VND 100.000. The annual carrying cost is 5% of the price.
According to EOQ model what is the company's re-ordering point?
Suppose that a year has 360 days, the time of purchase is 6 days.
Answer :
Oder point (OP) = Lead time x Daily usage
A daily usage (3600/360) = 10 units
Lead time = 6 days
OP = Lead time x Daily usage
