On October 1, 2021, Oberley Corporation loans one of its employees $20,000 and accepts a 12-month, 8% note receivable. Calculate the amount of interest revenue Oberley will recognize in 2021 and 2022.

Oberley Corporation

Amount of interest revenue that Oberley will recognize in 2021 and 2022 are:

2021: $400

2022: $1,200

Explanation:

Amount of employees' loans = $20,000

Duration of loans = 12-month

Interest rate = 8%

Date of loans = October 1, 2021

Interest revenue = $20,000 * 8% = $1,600

2021 revenue = $1,600 * 3/12 = $400

2021 revenue = $1,600 * 9/12 = $1,200

b) The interest revenue is calculated as 8% of $20,000.  This amount is then apportioned according to the number of months that it is consumed.  It is consumed for 3 months in 2021 and 9 months in 2022.  This agrees with the matching and accrual principles of generally accepted accounting principles.

in 2001, dell computer became the world’s largest personal computer vendor, continuing to

gain market share and post profits in an industry struggling with slumping sales and billions of

dollars in losses. dell sells 90% of its pcs directly to the final customer, largely bypassing the

reseller channel that accounts for most of the world’s pc sales. this direct customer relationship

is the key to dell’s business model, and provides distinct advantages over the indirect sales

model. dell’s direct relationship with the customer allows it to tailor its offerings to customer

needs, offer add-on products and services, and use the internet to offer a variety of customer

services. in addition, dell’s pcs are built to customers’ specifications upon receipt of an order,

giving dell additional advantages over indirect pc vendors who must try to forecast demand and

ship products based on those forecasts. dell’s direct sales and build-to-order model has achieved

superior performance in the pc industry in terms of inventory turnover, reduced overhead, cash

conversion, and return on investment (kraemer, et al., 2000).
