Answer:

A. $3,566

B. $2,605

Explanation:

Calculation to Determine the amount to be paid in full settlement of each of two invoices, (a) and (b)

A. Amount paid in full=(5,100-1,700)*(100%-1%)+200

Amount paid in full=(5,100-1,700)*99%+200

Amount paid in full=3,400*99%+200

Amount paid in full=$3,566

B. Amount paid in full=(3,250-1,000)*(100%-2%) +400

Amount paid in full=(3,250-1,000)*98% +400

Amount paid in full=2,250*98%+400

Amount paid in full=$2,605

Therefore the amount to be paid in full settlement of each of two invoices, (a) and (b) will be :

A. $3,566

B. $2,605
