26B. Assume that the Jazz Co. has available cash in excess of expected needs in the month of December and plans to repay amount --principle and interest by December 31 using simple interest.
Tab: 2 Calculate the total amount repaid to the bank.
a) Cash Budget:
Description | Amount$ |
Budgeted beginning cash balance | 24,000.00 |
Add: Budgeted Receipts | 177,000.00 |
Less: Budgeted disbursements | 167,000.00 |
Budgeted closing cash balance | 34,000.00 |
Less: Desired closing cash balance | 50,000.00 |
Deficiency of cash available over disbursements | 16,000.00 |
b) Computation of Total Amount repaid to the Bank:
Deficiency of cash available over disbursements or Loan Amount = $16,000
Interest Rate = 2%
Total Amount repaid to Bank = Principal + Interest
= $16,000 + ($16,000*2%*1/12)
= $16,000 + $26.67
Total Amount repaid to Bank = $16,026.67 or $16,027
