Hire Purchase Accounts

Hire Purchase

Hire Purchase (HP) is one of the payment methods of which the buyer use the goods without immediate full settlement of the price of the goods

With Hire Purchase Agreement

The HP selling price includes normal Cash Price PLUS HP Interest

The seller agreed that the buyer could hire the goods by payments of ‘deposit’ and ‘instalments’

Hire Purchase Price

= Cash Price + Total Hire Purchase Interest

= Deposit(Down payment)

+Outstanding Balance(including HP interestpaid by instalments

Calculation of Hire Purchase Interest

(a) Straight line method(b) Actuarial Method(c) Sum-of-digits Method

Straight Line Method(Equal apportionment)

• Interest is apportioned evenly over the number of installments agreed upon.

HP Interest per instalment = Total HP Interest Number of total instalments

Example 1

An asset is acquired on the following terms:

Cash price $9000 Down payment $1000 HP Price $12200 Nominal rate of interest 10% Four annual instalments $2800

Total HP interest = $12000-$9000 =$3200HP interest payable per annum = $3200/4 = $800

An alternative way to calculate hire purchase interest($9000-$1000)*10% = $800

800800800800

2800280028002800

2000200020002000

Answer:

B. Actuarial Method

Interest is charged on the outstanding balance of the cash price after the down payment is made.

1. Equal instalments2. Unequal instalment

1 Equal instalment

Example 2 An asset is acquired on the following terms: Cash price $9000 Down payment $1000 HP price $11096 Interest 10% on outstanding balance Four annual instalment$2524

Equal instament = HP price – Down payment No. of instalment

(11096-1000)/4

(9000-1000)*10% =800 2524252425242524

1724(8000+800-2524)*10%=628 1896(6276+628-2524)*10%=438 2086(4380+438-2524)*10%=230 2294

4380 2096 8000 10096

Unequal instalment

Example 3 An asset is acquired on the following terms: Cash price $9000 Down payment $1000 HP price $11000 Interest 10% on outstanding balance Four annual instament $2000+interest

Unequal instalment=Cash price-Down payment+Interest accrued No. of instalment (i.e.unpaid interest)

(9000-1000)*10% =800 2800(8000+800-2800)*10%=600(6000+600-2600)*10%=400(4000+400-2400)*10%=200

4000 2000 8000 10000

2000200020002000

260024002200

C. Sum of Digits Method

The HP interest is apportioned according to the digit assigned (descending order)

Using this method, more interest is charged in the earlier periods, less interest is charged in the later periods.

HP interest per instalment = Total HP interest* Digit assigned in the instalment Sum-of-digits of total instalment

When n = number of instalmentsSum of digits = n(n+1) 2

Example 4 A motor vehicle was purchased under a hire purchase

agreement Cash price $10000 Hire Purchase $13600 Instalments 4 months Date of sale 1 October 1996 Calculate the interest under each of the three cases: (a) First instalment due at the end of month from the d

ate of sale (b) First instalment due at the beginning of month follo

wing the date of sale (c) First instalment due at the date of sale.

Case (a) and (b) Interest paid

1st instalment $3600*4/10=$14402nd instalment $3600*3/10=$10803rd instalment $3600*2/10=$7204th instalment $3600*1/10=$360

Total HP interest =$13600-$10000=$3600Sum of digit= 4*(4+1)/2=10

Case ( C ) Interest paid

1st instalment $3600*3/6=$18002nd instalment $3600*2/6=$12003rd instalment $3600*1/6=$6004th instalment -

Total HP interest =$13600-$10000=$3600Sum of digit= 3*(3+1)/2=6

B. Termination of a Hire Purchase Agreement The buyer can terminate the hire purchase

agreement earlier by paying balance earlier than the last installment date.

However, the buyer may also be forced to terminate the agreement earlier if the asset is scrapped due to its use.

Upon the termination of a hire purchase agreement, a number of entries should be made in the books.

The accounting treatments differ, depending on which method is used to record hire purchase interest.
