11. On January 1, 2011, Camry Company received a two-year P500,000 loan. The loan calls for interest payments to be made at the end of each year based on the prevailıng market rate at January 1 of each year. The interest rate at January 1, 2011 was 10%.

The two entities agree to make settlement payments, for the difference only, on December 31, 2012. If the interest rate on January 1, 2012 is 8%, what will be Camry's settlement with Fortuner? a. 10,000 payment b. 10,000 receipt c. 5,000 payment d. 5,000 receipt
