Vendor Credit

Used when products are purchased on credit and cash discount opportunity is missed.

CC

SOD / CC Loan

Bank credit facility where interest usually depends on actual withdrawn or utilized amount.

LL

Lender Loan

Personal or private lender based loan where fixed interest may be paid monthly, daily or yearly.

RM

Risk Monitoring

Helps identify hidden cost, cash pressure, interest burden and repayment priority.

VC
Vendor Credit Interest

Vendor Credit Interest Information

Vendor credit is not always free. If a vendor offers a cash discount but charges full invoice amount for credit payment, then the missed discount becomes a hidden financing cost.

01
Cash Discount Loss When you delay payment and lose a cash discount, that discount amount becomes your indirect cost.
02
Credit Period Impact A short credit period can still create a high effective yearly cost if the missed discount is large.
03
Vendor Negotiation Hint Compare cash price and credit price before purchase. Ask vendor whether discount can be partially retained.
04
Business Decision Hint Take vendor credit only when cash flow benefit is greater than the discount loss.
CC
SOD / CC Loan Interest

SOD / CC Loan Interest Information

SOD or CC loan is a bank credit limit facility. Interest normally applies on the utilized amount, not on the full approved limit, unless bank terms are different.

01
Used Amount Based Interest Interest is generally linked with how much amount was withdrawn and how many days it remained used.
02
Daily Interest Awareness Even small withdrawals can create cost if the amount remains outstanding for many days.
03
Deposit Timing Hint Early deposit can reduce interest burden because CC/SOD interest is time-sensitive.
04
Bank Charge Reminder Besides interest, banks may apply service charge, renewal charge, processing fee or other charges.
LL
Lender Loan Interest

Lender Loan Interest Information

Lender loan means money received from a person or private source. Interest can be fixed monthly, daily or yearly based on agreement.

01
Agreement Clarity Keep lender name, phone number, address, principal amount, interest amount and payment date recorded.
02
Only Interest Payment Some lender loans require only monthly interest payment while principal remains unchanged.
03
Interest Type Tracking Clearly identify whether the interest agreement is daily, monthly or yearly.
04
Repayment Discipline Late payment may increase pressure, damage relationship and create additional financial risk.
