Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The standard University penalty for late submission should be 5% per day, until the mark reaches zero.

Detailed explanation-2: -Most teachers, even if they have a lenient policy on late assignments, expect assignments to be turned in on the due date, and if your assignment is late, your professor may interpret the lateness as a sign of disrespect, which, in many circumstances, it is.

Detailed explanation-3: -It depends on how your prof grades lateness, but if you’ve completed the basic ideas but just not fleshed it out in-between, it’s better to hand in that paper, rather than delay it, finish it, but take the late hit.

Detailed explanation-4: -Scenario: For a 10-point assignment, there will be a 10% deduction for submission 1 day after the deadline. A student submitted the assignment 1 day after the deadline and got 80% of the answers correct, i.e. if the assignment is not late, the student should get 10 points x 80% = 8 points.
