AUCTIONEER; NEW AND UsED FURNITURE Terrace & landowners who could do so, to pay up early in order to meet the charges of the contractors and reduce the amount of loan and interest. In order to do this a rebate of ten per cent was al- lowed to all who paid in full be- fore the end of January last, or eight per cent to those who paid before the end of April. It was assumed that those who did not pay the whole amount before the end of April were intending to pay the levy by in- limited to eight and made pay- able in January and July in each of four years. Interest was necessarily chargeable on instal- ments, as the money was held on loan by the Commissioners who had to pay eight per cent per annum for it. It was assumed that the instal- ments would be paid promptly and in that case the earlier pay- ments would discount the Jater so that half the total amount of interest for four years would meet the case. Hence eight per cent for two years was added to the nett amount of the tax to cover the interest payable by in- stalment payers. That brought the $15 up to $17.40 which divided by 8 gives $2.90 per acre as the instalment payable. At the same time if any owner wishes to pay off his tax in full he is allowed a rebate of all interest from the period of such payment, and receives his certificate of clearance. So after paying the first instalment of $2.20 a settle- ment may be effected by paying $13.15 instead of $15.20 required to complete the $17.40, with each succeeding instalment the amorti- zation figure is worked out on the same principle. ‘All of which means the earlier the tax is paid the less it will be.
