Franchise Sample Problem
On December 31, 2017, Mc Jolly Corporation entered into a five year franchise agreement giving J-
Bee Co. the right to operate as a franchisee. Mc Jolly charged J-Bee Co. an initial franchise fee (IFF) of
P50,000 for the right to operate as a franchisee. Of this amount, P20,000 is payable when J-Bee Co. signs
the agreement, and issued a note for the balance which is payable in five annual payments of P6,000
every December 31. 18% interest is charged annually based on the annual payment.
As part of the arrangement, J-Bee Co. also promises to pay ongoing royalty payments (CFF) of 1%
of its annual sales (payable at every January 31 of the following year) and is obliged to purchase products
from Mc Jolly at its current stand alone selling price at the time of purchase.
