A worked example from South-West Oxford

Worked example

A greenhouse grower in South-West Oxford with about $62,000 in monthly deposits takes $43,000 to cover payroll during a slow-paying contract at a 1.28 factor rate, for a total payback of $55,040 over about 10 months. That works out to roughly $1,271 a week, or about 9% of monthly deposits; the cost is fixed at $12,040 however quickly it is repaid on schedule.
