(a) When the unpaid balance owing on a precomputed home repair contract is repaid in full at any time before the end of the contract period, the holder of the contract shall allow a credit on account of the precomputed credit service charge, the amount of which shall be determined by the application of the formula C = AN / D, in which “C” represents the amount of the credit to be given; “A” represents the amount of the credit service charge, less an acquisition cost of $15.00; “D” represents an amount determined as follows: there shall be ascribed to each payment-period included in the contract period, beginning with the first payment-period scheduled by the contract, the cardinal number descriptive of the number of payment-periods scheduled by the contract to elapse from the beginning of each such payment-period to the end of the contract period, and the sum of all such cardinal numbers shall constitute the quantity “D”; and “N” represents the difference between the quantity “D” and the sum of all the cardinal numbers ascribed to the payment-periods which have elapsed, in whole or in part, from the date of the contract to the date upon which such repayment is made.
