In a merchandising business, net sales arise from sale of goods or inventory for sale.
Cost of sales also known as “cost of goods sold” represent the COST of inventory that has
been sold to the customers. Gross profit is the difference between Net Sales and Cost of Sales.
Then other operating income is added and operating expenses like distribution or selling costs,
administrative costs and other operating costs are deducted from gross profit to arrive at
operating profit. Investment revenues, other gains and losses, and finance costs (interest
expense) are considered to arrive at profit before income tax, then income tax expense is
deducted to have profit from continuing operations. Finally, profit from discontinued
operations (net of tax) is taken into account to arrive at profit for the period.

Solution:
2. Cash Discount
➢ Discount given for prompt payment
➢ Cash discounts are called purchase discounts from the buyer’s viewpoint and
sales discount from the seller’s point of view.
➢ It is applied on the Invoice Price (List Price minus Trade Discount)
➢ Cash discount is designated by such notation as “2/10” which means that the
buyer may avail of 2% discount if paid within 10 days from invoice date. The period
covered by the discount, in this case – 10 days, is called the discount period.
Sample Problem: Assume that the invoice for P150,000 with terms 2/10, n/30, is to be
paid within the discount period with money borrowed for the remaining 20 days of the
credit period. If an annual interest rate of 18% is assumed, what would be the net
savings to the buyer?
