(a) The amount of credit that Stacy should receive
The Amount of credit that Stacy should receive
= Partial Payment / [ 100% - Discount rate ]
= $245 / [ 100% - 4% ]
= $245 / 0.96
= $255.21 (Rounded)
* Discount rate of 4% is relevent here, since the partial payment is made within 15 days from the invoice date
“The amount of credit that Stacy should receive = $255.21 (Rounded) “
(b) Stacy’s outstanding balance
Stacy’s outstanding balance = Original Balance – Amount received on partial payment
= $1,080 - 255.21
= $824.79
“ Stacy’s outstanding balance = $824.79 “
