F. Discount Series
It is successive trade discount rates offer by the seller
to dispose the goods more quickly. Both discount and
complement method can be used in computing the net
price for a series of discounts.
In symbols the single trade discount rate is given by
r = 1 – (1-r1) (1-r2) (r3) …. (1-rk)
G. Equivalent Single Trade
Discounts Rate
We have to remember that s discount series of 20% and
10% is not the same to a single discount of 30%. To
compute the single discount rate, we first deduct each
rate each rate in the discount series individually from
100%. Then multiply the differences to get the net price.
Finally, we deduct the net price from the list price to get
the single trade discount.
