Notes:


1) Since payment is made by flap within the discount period (10 days of purchase), he will be entitled to the discount of 2% on the value of goods purchased by him with adjustment for goods returned by him. Therefore, he will get discount on 11500 only.


2) Interest will be accrued on Flop's Note for the Period - June 1 till December 31 (that is, 7 months)


3) Interest Revenue will be $ 500 for the Year 2013, since the promissory note has been honored by Flop on June 1 2013. Therefore, interest will be paid for 5 months from January 1 2013 till May 31 2013.


Thanks.
