SECURED DEBT—Corporation has no funded debt but it does have a debt secured by pledge" of assets. Because of the long period of expensive development of television sets before full scale marketing of the product could be achieved the corporation incurred a large deficit in excess of its small profits from war 1945 and 1946 greatly during THE Number 2623 Volume 166 contract work during 1242, 1943 and 1944. (The) Therefore, it had to Inc., money to purchase supplies and obtain working capital. Since Dec 17. 1945, Manufacturers Credit Corp., of Washington, D. C., has advanced loans to the corporation amounting to 80% of the face ■value of, and secured by specified accounts receivable and inventory. orrow The of this outstanding loan balance for which accounts receivable of £89 521 and inventory of $75,878 were pledged. Interest is at the rate of 12% per annum on the average daily outstanding value of collateral accounts during each month. This is an effective rate of approxi¬ mately 15% a year on the outstanding loan, since the collateral accounts are 125% of the loans. If the present loan balance were maintained throughout the year the total ihterest charge for the year would be approximately $19,850. If the financial position of the corporation continues to improve it hopes to be able to effect such necessary borrowing at lower interest rates from banking institutions.
