Cash Discount

A cash discount is a price reduction offered to customers for making early payments within a specified period. It encourages faster collections, improves cash flow, and reduces credit risk. While it lowers revenue slightly, the benefit of quicker cash inflow often outweighs the cost of offering the discount.
