Determine cumulative interest payable on an annuity with varying time periods

{ 0 Comments }

Imagine a fixed monthly amount due to an Organisation for services rendered to various customers.  While an invoice is raised every month by this Organisation, not all pay up the dues on time.  For unpaid dues, the Organisation charges its client interest ranging from 3% to 9% per annum.  The objective is to determine cumulative interest payable by various customers to Organisation X.

The base data looks like this

Client Monthly revenue Int. calculation start date Int. calculation end date Interest rate
Client A 33,967 01-Aug-16 25-Jul-17 9.00%
Client B 123 12-Sep-16 30-Nov-17 4.00%

Given the dataset above, the total interest payable by Client A is Rs. 16,237.20.  The calculation is shown below:
