I Grace Ayaa have sat down with my client Ayaa Nighty,and conducted an income assessment and came out with this result:

A- SOURCES OF INCOME:

1- Bracelets ---------------- 280,000/=

2- Stone quarry ------------- 100,000/=


TOTAL -------------- 380,000/

B- EXPENDITURES:

1- Rent ------------------- 20,000/=

2- School fees ------------- 30,000/=

3- Food --------------100,000/=

4- Transport ------------- 30,000/=

5- Medical ------------- 20,000/=

6- Water ------------- 10,000/=

7- Fuel ------------- 20,000/=

8- Clothing ------------- 10,000/=


TOTAL -------------240,000/=

A-B = 380,000/= - 240,000/= = 140,000/=

We have therefore agreed that Nighty is capable of paying back her loan amount of 800,000/= in 12 months at the rate of 80,665/= @ month.
