ANSWER:-

Additional credit = 11,900000 * 40 /365

=$1,304,109.58

Nominal cost =(discount rate) / (1-discount rate )) * (365 / (credit period - discount period))

=(0.02/(1-0.02)) * (365 / (50-10))

=18.62%

Effective cost = (1+(discount rate / (1- discount rate)))^ (365 / (credit period - discount period)) -1

=(1+2/98)^(365/40) -1

=20.24%

Effective rate of bank loan =(1+0.082/12)^(12)-1

=8.52%
