Question

he time from acceptance to maturity on a $1,000,000 banker’s acceptance is 90 days. The importer’s bank’s acceptance commission is 2.25% and the market rate for 90‐day B/As is 6.00%. What amount will the exporter receive if he discounts the B/A with the importer’s bank? Answer to 2 decimal places with no , or $ or other symbols.

Answer 1

Solution:-

Assume 360 days in a year.

To Calculate the amount will the exporter receive if he discounts the B/A with the importer’s bank-

Amount = $10,00,000 * [1-{(0.0225 + 0.06) * }]

Amount = $10,00,000 * [1-(0.020625)]

Amount = $10,00,000 * 0.979375

Amount = $9,79,375

Amount will the exporter receive if he discounts the B/A with the importer’s bank is $9,79,375.
