If a customer bought $150,000 worth of goods and paid the firm cash eight days after the sale, how much cash would Ziff Corp. get from the customer? (Note: Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar.) $138,750 $157,500 $148,500 $123,750

Answer 1

$148,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

Sales = $150,000

Rate of discount = 10

The computation of Ziff Corp. cash received from customer is shown below:-

Total collection = Sale × (1 - Rate of discount)

= $150,000 × (1 - 0.01)

= $150,000 × 0.99

= $148,500

Therefore for computing the total collection we simply applied the above formula.
