1. What is Net 30 Payment With Interest?

Net 30 payment terms mean the invoice is due in 30 days. When payments are late, interest is often charged based on the principal amount, interest rate, and number of days late.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the formula:

\[ \text{Amount Due} = \text{Principal} + \left( \text{Principal} \times \frac{\text{Interest Rate}}{100} \times \frac{\text{Days Late}}{365} \right) \]

Where:

$ \text{Principal} $ — Original amount owed ($)
$ \text{Interest Rate} $ — Annual interest rate (%)
$ \text{Days Late} $ — Number of days past due

Explanation: The formula calculates simple interest on the principal amount for the number of days late, using a 365-day year.

3. Importance of Calculating Late Payments

Details: Accurate calculation of late payment amounts ensures proper compensation for delayed payments and helps maintain healthy cash flow for businesses.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the original amount owed (principal), annual interest rate, and number of days late. All values must be valid (principal > 0, rate ≥ 0, days ≥ 0).

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is a typical late payment interest rate?
A: Rates vary but often range from 1-2% per month (12-24% annually). Some contracts specify exact rates.

Q2: Is this simple or compound interest?
A: This calculator uses simple interest. Compound interest would apply interest to previously accrued interest.

A: Yes, by entering negative days (e.g., -10 for paying 10 days early).

Q4: What if my contract uses a 360-day year?
