    The amount of cash did Russia receive from Wells Fargo is $49,025

    Explanation:

    * Since the receivable is charged with 6% of the interest rate for one-year, the amount Russia Corporation will receive on June 30th 2019 is: Principal + Interest on the principal = 50,000 + 50,000*6% = $53,000.

    * In 30th September 2019, it is 9-month to the maturity of the Receivable valued at $53,000 and the bank charge 10% on the discount, so the cost of discount will be: 53,000 x 10% x 9/12 = $3,975

    => The total cash received by Russia from the Bank = Receivable plus interest on it to be collected on 30 June 2019 - Discount cost = 53,000 - 3,975 = $49,025.
