Bill dated 29th January, 2009 has the maturity period of one month, but there is no
corresponding date in February, 2009. Therefore, the last day of the month i.e. 28th
February, 2009 shall be deemed maturity date and due date would be 3rd March, 2009
(after adding 3 days of grace).
2.
Bill dated 12th July, 2009 has the maturity period of one month, due date (after adding 3
days of grace) falls on 15th August, 2009. 15th August being public holiday, due date
would be preceding date i.e. 14th August, 2009.

Hence, the date of settlement of the balance amount is 36 days after 9th July, i.e. 14th August.
Thus, on 14th August, 2013, Thin has to pay ` 15,100 to Thick.
Question 13
Define Average Due Date. List out the various instances when Average Due Date can be
used.
(4 Mark, IPCC May, 2014)
Answer
In business enterprises, a large number of receipts and payments by and from a single party may
occur at different points of time. To simplify the calculation of interest involved for such
transactions, the idea of average due date has been developed. Average Due Date is a break-even
date on which the net amount payable can be settled without causing loss of interest either to the
borrower or the lender.
Few instances where average due date can be used:
(i)
(ii)
(iii) Settlement of contra accounts, that is, A and B sell goods to each other on different
dates.

Unit 2: Account Current
Question 1
What is meant by Red-Ink interest in an Account Current? (2 Marks) (November, 2007) (PCC)
Answer
In an Account Current, interest is calculated on the amount of a bill from the date of
transaction to the closing date of the period concerned. In case the due date of the bill falls
after the closing date of the account, then no interest is allowed for that period. However, it is
customarily followed that interest from the date of closing to the due date is written in red ink
in the appropriate side of the Account Current. This interest is called Red-Ink Interest. This
Red-Ink interest is treated as negative interest.
Question 2
What is Account current?
Answer
Account current is a running statement of transactions between parties, maintained in the form
of a ledger account, for a given period of time and includes interest allowed or charged on
various items. It is prepared when transactions regularly take place between two parties. An
account current has two parties one who renders the account and the other to whom the
account is rendered.
