A company purchases merchandise for $24,000. The seller also offers credit terms of 2/10, n/30. Assuming no returns were made, and that payment was made within the discount period, what is the net cost of the merchandise?

Respuesta :

The answer is $23520.

Given,

company purchases merchandise = $24,000.

The seller also offers credit terms of 2/10, n/30.

Assumptions,

no returns were made.

the payment was made within the discount period

Discount term 2/10, n/30 means that the buyer will receive a discount of 2% if the invoice is paid within 10 days. Otherwise, he will have to pay the full amount within 30 days.

Merchandise inventory = Merchandise purchased - discount received

                                       = $24000 - 2%

                                       = $23520

Hence,  the net cost of the merchandise is $23,520.
