London Inc. expects to have sales this year of $15 million under its current credit policy. The present terms are net 60; the DSO is 60 days; and the bad debt loss percentage is 5%. Also, London Inc.’s cost of capital is 15%, and its variable costs total 60% of sales. The credit committee proposes to tighten the credit term to net 30. The consultants predict that sales would decrease by $500,000. The new DSO would be 30 days, and the bad debt loss percentage on all sales would fall to 3%. What would be the incremental cost of carrying receivables if this change were made? Assume 360 days in a year.


$157,900



$108,750



–$116,250 (carrying costs would decline)



–$225,000 (carrying costs would decline)
