    The loss on transfer of receivables is $960,000

    Explanation:

    Sales amount $12,000,000

    Finance charge 3%*$12 million ($360,000)

    Retention amount 10%*$12 million ($1,200,000)

    Cash upfront $ 10,440,000

    The recourse liability is $600,000, which means that additional liability of $600,000 would be incurred by Lacuna Inc, if the total amount from the receivables is not received owing to the fact that the factoring is with recourse.

    The loss on transfer of receivables is shown as:

    Finance charge $360,000

    Recourse liability $600,000

    total loss $960,000
