Answer: public goods and common resources
Explanation:
Externality is the consequence of a producer's or consumer's action on a third party which did not partake in the action.
The idea that externalities arise because something that is valuable has no price attached is associated with the public goods and the common resources. The provision of public goods such as good roads, defence will lead to positive externalities, while the use of common resources such as fish in the river or the environment will lead to negative externalities e.g polluting the environment will give rise to a negative effect on a third party.

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
