Quarter Foods began its operations January 1, 2014. As its food does not go bad, Quarter Foods return policy is that anything can be returned for a full refund within one week. In 2014 all sales were completed before December 24, 2014.
Individual Customers:
All of its sales to individual customers are with traditional credit cards and these credit card companies charge Quarter Foods a 2% service fee for all sales (and refund this fee with any returns). In 2014, Quarter Foods sold $220,000 to individual consumers and $20,000 of these sales was returned within the one week period. An individual who spent $5,000 at Quarter Foods realized that Quarter Foods was non-organic and when she inquired about returns Quarter Foods offered her an allowance on the purchase in the form of a $1,500 store gift card, which she accepted instead of returning the items.
Business Customers:
All of Quarter Foods' sales to businesses are on account. Quarter Foods offers a discount of "5/20 n/60" for early payments of sales on account. In 2014, Quarter Foods sold $170,000 to business customers and $10,000 of these sales was returned within the one week period. Quarter Foods estimates that 5% of the final Sales on Account (those that the business customers do not return) will not be collected.
One business customer, with purchases in 2014 of $20,000, always paid Quarter Foods within 15 days of the purchase. Another business customer, with $5,000 of unpaid purchases, declared bankruptcy and did not have any means to pay any of the bill. No other business customer paid within 30 days of the purchase. At the end of the year Quarter Foods' balance in Accounts Receivable is $20,000. Both of these customers' purchases were included in the $170,000.
