Cash discount is a reduction in total price of goods and services for prompt payment.
Explanation:
It is given to enhance prompt payment and to discourage trade credit.
Let's assume a Company offers some certain percentage of discount for prompt payment. A goods cost #100,000 for instance. And then for payment within 10 days, 20% discount will be given, payment between day 11 to 15 days of purchasing the goods 15% discount and payment within 16 to 20 days attracts 10%. It means any customer who pays within the first 10 days of purchasing the goods get a discount of #20,000 (i.e 20% of #100,000), hence pays #80,000 for the good. A payment within day 11 to 15 of purchase gets 15% discount, so is allowed only #15,000 (i.e 15% of #100,000), so pays #85,000 while payment made within day 16 to 20 of purchase attracts only #10,000 discount (i.e 10% of #100,000), so he pays only #90,000. No discount will be given to payment made above 20 days of purchase and the full #100,000 will be paid.
Cash discount is also called Early payment discount
