Hire-purchase price = Cash price + interest
or
= Deposit + instalments amount
Depreciation: cost over useful life of the asset.
Method of recording:
1. Net Method
2. Gross Method
Cost of asset = cash price
12. BKAF3063 A141 12
Hirer : Interest
Interest rate: should not be more than 10% per annum.
Total interest = hire-purchase price - cash price
Matching principle applied: interest need to be amortised.
Method of amortization:
1) Actuarial / effective interest / residual balance
2) Sum-of-the-years digit
3) Straight line
13. BKAF3063 A141 13
Hirer : Interest
Illustration 1:
On 1 July 2013, Abric Berhad purchased a machine under
hire-purchase agreement with Banker Berhad. The company
paid deposit of RM1,000 and further instalments of RM902
per month for 5 months starting from 31 July 2013. The cash
price of the machine is RM5,400. Interest rate charged is 6%
per year. The current effective interest rate is 0.83% per
month.
14. BKAF3063 A141 14
Hirer : Interest
Solution to Illustration 1:
HP price = cash deposit + instalments
= 1,000 + (902 x 5)
= RM5,510
Interest = HP price – Cash price
= 5,510 – 5,400
= RM110

Hirer : Interest
Illustration 2:
On 1 July 2013, Jobfast Berhad. purchased a delivery van
under hire-purchase agreement with Banker Berhad. The
company paid deposit of RM20,000 and further instalments of
RM5,200 per month for 6 months starting from 31 July 2013.
The cash price of the delivery van is RM50,000. Interest rate
charged is 8% per year.
17. BKAF3063 A141 17
Hirer : Interest
Solution to Illustration 2:
HP price = cash deposit + instalments
= 20,000 + (5,200 x 6)
= RM51,200
Interest = HP price – Cash price
= 51,200 – 50,000
= RM1,200

Assume Hijau Berhad has repossessed the asset on 1 April
2014 due to failure of Merah Berhad to settle the arrears
since January 2014. Merah Berhad also failed to return the
assets after 21 days receiving notice of repossession. The best
value of the asset at the date of the repossession is RM7,800.
Hijau Berhad charged Merah Berhad for repossession charge
of RM360, storage RM150 and repair of RM230. The selling
cost of the machine is expected to be RM600.
