| todolist | cost of trade credit = effective annual interest rate.... |
| troyboy | Why 365/30? I used 365/45 and got 28%?? Help please |
| Skrills | you get a 3 percent discount if you pay within 15 days(i.e. 3/15)... 45-15=30, days of interest |
| Gpcurve | This assumes daily compounding, which would be a quite unusual credit term. |
| jagp | Useful way of solving this on the texas BA II: PV = -9700 FV = 10000 N = 30/365 Compute for I/Y and it will give you the rate |
I just wanted to share the good news that I passed CFA Level I!!! Thank you for your help - I think the online question bank helped cut the clutter and made a positive difference.
