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

borrower or the lender.

(i) Calculation of interest on drawings made by the proprietors or partners of a business firm at several
points of time.
(ii) Settlement of accounts between a principal and an agent.
(iii) Settlement of contra accounts, that is, A and B sell goods to each other on different dates.
