E N D
Hire Purchase • Hire Purchase (HP) is one of the payment methods of which the buyer use the goods without immediate full settlement of the price of the goods
With Hire Purchase Agreement • The HP selling price includes normal Cash Price PLUS HP Interest • The seller agreed that the buyer could hire the goods by payments of ‘deposit’ and ‘instalments’
Hire Purchase Price = Cash Price + Total Hire Purchase Interest OR Outstanding Balance (including HP interest paid by instalments = Deposit (Down payment) +
Calculation of Hire Purchase Interest Straight line method Actuarial Method Sum-of-digits Method
Straight Line Method(Equal apportionment) • Interest is apportioned evenly over the number of installments agreed upon. HP Interest per instalment = Total HP Interest Number of total instalments
Example 1 • An asset is acquired on the following terms: • Cash price $9000 • Down payment $1000 • HP Price $12200 • Nominal rate of interest 10% • Four annual instalments $2800
Answer: Total HP interest = $12000-$9000 =$3200 HP interest payable per annum = $3200/4 = $800 OR An alternative way to calculate hire purchase interest ($9000-$1000)*10% = $800 Year HP interest Capital Instalments $ $ $ 1 2 3 4 + = 2800 2800 2800 2800 2000 2000 2000 2000 800 800 800 800
B. Actuarial Method • Interest is charged on the outstanding balance of the cash price after the down payment is made. • Equal instalments • Unequal instalment
1 Equal instalment Equal instament = HP price – Down payment No. of instalment • Example 2 • An asset is acquired on the following terms: • Cash price $9000 • Down payment $1000 • HP price $11096 • Interest 10% on outstanding balance • Four annual instalment $2524 (11096-1000)/4
Year HP interest Capital Instalments $ $ $ 1 2 3 4 6276 (9000-1000)*10% =800 1724 2524 2524 2524 2524 (8000+800-2524)*10%=628 1896 (6276+628-2524)*10%=438 2086 (4380+438-2524)*10%=230 2294 10096 8000 2096 4380
Unequal instalment Unequal instalment=Cash price-Down payment+Interest accrued No. of instalment (i.e.unpaid interest) • Example 3 • An asset is acquired on the following terms: • Cash price $9000 • Down payment $1000 • HP price $11000 • Interest 10% on outstanding balance • Four annual instament $2000+interest
Year HP interest Capital Instalments $ $ $ 1 2 3 4 6000 (9000-1000)*10% =800 2800 2000 2000 2000 2000 2600 (8000+800-2800)*10%=600 2400 (6000+600-2600)*10%=400 2200 (4000+400-2400)*10%=200 10000 8000 2000 4000
C. Sum of Digits Method • The HP interest is apportioned according to the digit assigned (descending order) • Using this method, more interest is charged in the earlier periods, less interest is charged in the later periods.
When n = number of instalments Sum of digits = n(n+1) 2 HP interest per instalment = Total HP interest* Digit assigned in the instalment Sum-of-digits of total instalment
Example 4 • A motor vehicle was purchased under a hire purchase agreement • Cash price $10000 • Hire Purchase $13600 • Instalments 4 months • Date of sale 1 October 1996 • Calculate the interest under each of the three cases: • (a) First instalment due at the end of month from the date of sale • (b) First instalment due at the beginning of month following the date of sale • (c) First instalment due at the date of sale.
Total HP interest =$13600-$10000=$3600 Sum of digit= 4*(4+1)/2=10 Case (a) and (b) Interest paid 1st instalment $3600*4/10=$1440 2nd instalment $3600*3/10=$1080 3rd instalment $3600*2/10=$720 4th instalment $3600*1/10=$360
Total HP interest =$13600-$10000=$3600 Sum of digit= 3*(3+1)/2=6 Case ( C ) Interest paid 1st instalment $3600*3/6=$1800 2nd instalment $3600*2/6=$1200 3rd instalment $3600*1/6=$600 4th instalment -
