Answer:

21.28%

Explanation:

Note: Assuming 365 day year

Cost of giving up cash discount = [Discount rate / (1-Discount rate)] * 365 / [Credit period - Discount period]

Cost of giving up cash discount = [0.02/(1-0.02)] * [365/(45-10)]

Cost of giving up cash discount = [0.02/0.98] * [365/35]

Cost of giving up cash discount = 0.0204082 * 10.42857

Cost of giving up cash discount = 0.212828

Cost of giving up cash discount = 21.28%
