Hi I wanted to see if someone can check my answers and work ?

Assume that your team is in business and you must borrow $6,000 cash for short-term needs. You have been shopping banks for a loan, and you have the following two options.

A. Sign a $6,000, 90-day, 10% interest-bearing note dated June 1.

Interest Expense = ($6,000 x 10%) x

=$150

B. Sign a $6,000, 120-day, 8% interest-bearing note dated June 1.

Interest Expense = ($6,000 x 8%) x

=$160

The interest expense that is in option B does in fact exceed option A. However if merely the $10 more is paid in interest expense, the business would be able to use the loan money for an additional thirty days. There is a factor of which decision on loan would be preferred would ultimately depend on whether interest cost savings is valued more than the additional time to use the money that was loaned

Required
