Question

What is the difference between an invoice and a purchase order?

Answer 1

Answer:

C. An invoice is provided to the customer by the business and a

purchase order is filled out by the customer.

Explanation:

An invoice is a business document prepared by a business, addressed to a customer to claim payments for goods sold or services provided.  It contains the details of the merchandise or services offered, their prices, any discounts, taxes due, and the total amount to be paid. Customers are expected to make payments against invoices presented within an agreed period.

A purchase order is a document prepared by a customer, addressed to a business detailing the goods or services that the customer has decided to purchase. A purchase order instructs an enterprise to supply a customer with the stated products or services.
