Trade Discount
• the supplier normally gives a special discount
• This discount is referred to as trade discount.
• TRADE DISCOUNT = TRADE DISCOUNT RATE x
SELLING PRICE
Example
• My regular beef supplier gives me a 5% discount on my
meat purchases every week. If the price of beef brisket
this week is PhP375 per kilo and I am planning to buy 1.5
kilos, how much trade discount will I receive from this
purchase
Total Selling Price = 1.5 x 375 = PhP562.50
Trade Discount = 0.05 x 562.50 = PhP28.13
I will get a total trade discount of PhP28.13 for my 1.5 kg of
beef brisket this week
TRADE DISCOUNT SERIES
• a supplier may want to give its distributor a
discount of 20/10/5.
• To interpret, the supplier may, in addition to
the 20% discount it gives the distributors,
slash another 10% from the resulting
discounted price if the distributor purchases a
set minimum volume of items and another
additional 5% if the purchase is paid in cash.
EXAMPLE
• If a popular shoe brand promotes this
discount of 20/10/5 for a minimum volume of
250 pairs of shoes.
• Assuming that the unit selling price of the
shoes is PhP2,500, compute the trade
discount per pair of shoes that a distributor
avails of under this scheme.
First Trade Discount = 0.20 X 2,500 = PhP500
Initial Discounted Price = 2,500 – 500 =PhP2,000
OR
Initial Discounted Price = (1 – 0.80) x 2,500 = PhP2,000
Second Trade Discount = 0.10 X 2,000 = PhP200
Second Discounted Price = 2,000 – 200 = PhP1,800
OR
Second Discounted Price = (1 – 0.10) x 2,000 = PhP1,800
Last Trade Discount = 0.05 X 1,800 = PhP90
Total Trade Discount = 500 + 200 + 90 = PhP790
The distributor will be able to avail of a total of PhP790 of trade discounts if
he purchases a minimum of 250 pairs of shoes
