Explanation / Answer

Annualised cost of trade credit = [1+d÷(1-d)]^[365÷(Full payment days - Discount days)] -1

The annualised cost of the trade credit terms of 1/15, net 50 = [1+1%÷(1-1%)]^[365÷(50-15)] -1 = [1+1%÷99%]^[365÷35]-1 = [1+0.0101]^10.43-1 = 1.0101^10.43 -1 = 0.1105 = 11.05%

Annualised cost of trade credit = [1+d÷(1-d)]^[360÷(Full payment days - Discount days)] -1

The annualised cost of the trade credit terms of 4/10, net 20 = [1+4%÷(1-4%)]^[360÷(20-10)] -1 = [1+4%÷96%]^[360÷10] -1 = [1+0.0417]^36 -1 = 1.0417^36 -1 = 4.3525-1 = 3.3525 = 335.25%
