19.
Amount of receivables = 300,000
Finance charge = 3%
Hence, finance charge = 300,000 x 3%
= 9,000
Hence, the loss to be reported is 9,000 when Henson factors the receivables on a without guarantee basis.
Hence, correct option is (B) 9,000
20.
Agee Company (factor) has retained 5% of the receivables
Hence, amount due from factor = 300,000 x 5%
= 15,000
When Henson factors the receivables on a with guarantee (recourse) basis, the amount of cash received will be calculated as under:
Amount of cash to be received = Amount of receivables - Finance charge - Due from factor
= 300,000 - 9,000 - 15,000
= 276,000
Hence, correct option is (B) 276,000
