_________________________________________________

_______________________________________________

(c)

Determine the stated interest rate and the effective interest rate.

Stated Interest rate = annual interest payable / Book value * 100

= 13255 / (113691+6809) * 100

=13255 / 120500 * 100

=11%

Effective interest rate

= 13643 / 113691 * 100

=12%
