Question

Payday loans are one of the most insidious business practices, and their customers seem to end up with a payday ball and chain around their neck that never seems to go away.  This is because the interest and fees associated with these loans are so high that many people get trapped into taking one after the other over and over again.  Rarely do payday loans end up being the short-term solution they claim.  On the business front, there are working capital loans.  Do you think that these are a good idea and a valid solution to help manage working capital, or do you think that these are the business equivalent of payday loans?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Answer:- 

Payday loans:- When money is obtained from another source, for example, a pension or social security, or on the borrower's next payday, a payday loan is typically repaid in a single lump sum. The payment deadline is usually two to four weeks after the loan was arranged.
