Types of Negotiated Financing Money Market Credit Unsecured Loans Commercial Paper Line of credit Bankers’ Acceptances Revolving credit agreement Transaction loan “Stand-Alone” Commercial Paper Commercial paper market is composed of the dealer and direct-placement markets. Advantage: Cheaper than a short-term business loan from commercial bank. Dealers require a line of credit to ensure that commercial paper is paid off. “Bank-Supported” Commercial Paper A bank provides a letter of credit, for a fee, guaranteeing the investor that the company’s obligation will be paid. Bankers’ Acceptances Used to facilitate foreign trade or the shipment of certain marketable goods. Liquid market provides rates similar to commercial paper rates. Short-Term Business Loans Unsecured Loans Secured Loans Unsecured Loans One-year limit that is reviewed prior to renewal to determine if conditions necessitate a change. Credit line is based on the bank’s assessment of the creditworthiness and credit needs of the firm “Cleanup” provision requires the firm to owe the bank nothing for a period of time Unsecured Loans Firm receives revolving credit by paying a commitment fee on any unused portion of the maximum amount of credit. Revolving Credit Agreement Agreements frequently extend beyond 1 year. Unsecured Loans Each request is handled as a separate transaction by the bank, and project loan determination is based on the cash-flow ability of the borrower. The loan is paid off at the completion of the project by the firm from resulting cash flows. Transaction Loan Detour: Cost of Borrowing Detour: Cost of Borrowing Differential from prime depends on: Cash Balances Other business with the bank Cost of servicing the loan Computing Interest Rates For example: PHP 100,000 loan at 10% stated interest rate for 1 year. 1 Interest = PHP 100,000 X 10% = PHP 10,000 2 Interest Rate = PHP 10,000 PHP 100,000 = 10% Collect Basis Interest Interest Rate = Usable funds Interest = Initial loan X Interest Rate Computing Interest Rates For example: PHP 100,000 loan at 10% stated interest rate for 1 year. 1 Interest = PHP 100,000 X 10% = PHP 10,000 2 Discount Basis Interest Interest Rate = Usable funds Usable funds = Initial loan - Interest Usable funds = PHP 100,000 – PHP 10,000 = PHP 90,000 3 Interest Rate = PHP 10,000 PHP 90,000 = 11.11% Compensating Balances For example: PHP 100,000 loan at 10% stated interest rate for 1 year with required PHP 15, 000 compensating balances 1 Interest = PHP 100,000 X 10% = PHP 10,000 2 Usable funds = PHP 100,000 – PHP 15,000 = PHP 85,000 3 Interest Rate = PHP 10,000 PHP 85,000 = 11.76% Interest Interest Rate = Usable funds Usable funds = Initial loan – Compensating balances Commitment Fees Commitment Fees = Unused credit X commitment fee rate Commitment Fees For example: PHP 1 million revolving credit at 10% stated interest rate for 1 year; borrowing for the year was PHP 600,000; a required 5% compensating balance on borrowed funds; and a .5% commitment fee on PHP 400,000 of unused credit. What is the cost of borrowing? Commitment Fees Solution: 1 Interest: (PHP 600,000 x 10%) = PHP 60,000 2 Commitment Fee: (PHP 400,000 x 0.5%) = PHP 2,000 3 Compensating Balance: (PHP 600,000 x 5%) 4 Usable Funds: 5 = PHP 30,000 (PHP 600,000 – PHP 30,000) = PHP 570,000 PHP 60,000 in interest + PHP 2,000 in commitment fees PHP 570,000 in usable funds = 10.87% Effective Annual Rate of Interest E A R Effective Annual Rate % ( EAR = ) X( ( Total interest paid + total fees paid Usable funds Total interest paid = Initial loan X Interest rate X 365 Days # of days loan is outstanding ) ) # of days loan is outstanding 365 Days Effective Annual Rate of Interest For example: Assume the same loan on the previous example except that the loan is for 270 days and the 10% rate is on an annual basis. What is the Estimated Annual Rate? Effective Annual Rate of Interest Solution: 1 Total interest paid = (PHP 600,000 X 10%) X (270/365) = PHP 44,384 2 Total fees paid = 3 Compensating Balance: 4 Usable Funds: 5 ( ( EAR = = (PHP 600,000 x 5%) (PHP 600,000 – PHP 30,000) PHP 44,384 + PHP 2,000 PHP 570,000 PHP 46,384 PHP 570,000 = PHP 2,000 (PHP 400,000 x (0.5%) )X ) X( = PHP 30,000 = PHP 570,000 ) 365 days 270 days 1.3519 = 0.0814 X 1.3519 = 0.11 or 11% Question Two firms each seek a $100,000, three-month, short-term loan from the same financial institution. One firm walks away with an unsecured loan, and the other leaves with a secured loan. Which firm’s loan is probably more expensive? Secured (Asset-Based) Loans Collateral value depends on: Marketability Riskiness Security (collateral) Life Uniform Commercial Code Article 9 of the Code deals with: Security interest of the lender Security agreement (device) Filing of the security agreement Accounts-Receivable-Backed Loans LOAN Loans evaluations are made on: Quality Size Types of Receivable Loan Arrangements Non-notification Notification Inventory-Backed Loans Loans evaluations are made on: Marketability Perishability Price stability Difficulty and expense of selling for loan satisfaction Cash-flow ability Types of Inventory-Backed Loans Floating Lien Chattel Mortgage Trust Receipt Terminal Warehouse Receipt Field Warehouse Receipt Factoring Accounts Receivables Cash Factor Company Accounts Receivable Factoring Cost Factor receives a commission on the face value of the receivables (typically <1% but as much as 3%) Cash payment is usually made on the actual or average due date of the receivables Cash Factor Company Accounts Receivable If the factor advances money to firm, then the firm must pay interest on the advance. Total cost of factoring is composed of a factoring fee plus an interest charge on any cash advance. Although expensive, it provides the firm with substantial flexibility.
