Explanation / Answer

        Effective interest rate = discount %/(100-discount %) X 360/(FT - DP)         Where:           FT = the full term allowed for payment in days           DP = the discount period allowed for payment in days Example: Suredrips is going to pay an invoice with terms of 2/10, net 45. Plugging into the formula:         Effective interest rate = 2/(100-2) X 365/(45-10)                                 = 2/98 X 365/35                                 = 21.28% Base = 360 days in a year         Effective interest rate = 2/(100-2) X 360/(45-10)                                 = 2/98 X 360/35                                 = 20.99%
