Sales revenue     $10,000

Sales Revenue        7,200

Finance charges   (1,200)

Explanation:

Finance charge of $500 = ($50,000 * 1%). Factoring accounts receivable enables Evergreen to collect on its accounts receivable before the due date.  This usually attracts some finance charges.  Sales without recourse means that the factoring company and not Evergreen accepts the risk associated with credit default.  Sales with recourse implies that Evergreen retains the risk arising from credit default.
