Required 2
Under the ‘take now, pay later' contract customers pay a 10% deposit and may take the goods on condition that a further 8% of the sale price is added to the balance owing which the customer then pays off in 12 equal monthly instalments. [See example] The contract notes that title passes to the customer at the time of sale and, if the customer defaults on any payment, the whole debt is immediately payable and recoverable.
Example: List price $3000; deposit $300; balance $3000 + (3000 x 8%) 240 - 300 = $2940/12 = $245 per month. [Total paid: $3,240]

Deposits received $112,500
