Answer 1

Answer:

15,160

Explanation:

Net 20 terms: Full amount ready between 20 days, occasionally written as n/20.

Terms 2/10. n/30: with a 2% discount for settlement within 10 days, net 30 implying that the full amount will be ready between 30 days.

The terms 1/10, n/30: with a 1% discount for settlement within 10 days time, net 30 meaning the full amount is going to be ready between 30 days.

Terms 5/10, 2/30, n/60: 5% for settlement within 10 days, 2% for settlement in 11-30 days, full amount due within 60 days.

Net 30 Terms EOM: Payment will be ready in full 30 days after the end of the month (EOM) in which the invoice was given for.

Answer 2

Answer:

$15160

Explanation:

The net terms or n/30 means that the payment fo an item purchased must be made within 30 days of purchase.

but 1/20/n30 means that if full payment of an asset or item purchased is made within the first 20 days of the 30 days an additional 1 % discount will be granted to the buyer.

since Corazon paid within the first 20 days he purchase price would be

= $14000 - (1% of $14000 )

= 14000 - 140

= $13860

the total capitalization of the asset by Corazon will be ( excluding the insurance)

= $13860 + $500 + $800 = $15160
