Luthuli Electronics Ltd. commenced business on 1 April 1999, selling television sets both on a cash basis and by instalments. Hire purchase sales require a deposit of one-third of the cash selling price with the balance payable in 18 equal monthly instalments. No additional charge is made for this service. At the end of each financial year the firm takes credit for the profit instalment sales only in respect of the proportion represented by deposit and instalments actually reserved.
