Explanation:

Sales Amount = 270 units x $400 = $108,000

Discount = $108,00 x 25% = $27,000

Net Sales = $108,000 - $27,000 = $81,000

Terms of sale 3/10, n/30 means there is a discount of 3% is available on payment of due amount within discount period of 10 days after sale with net credit period of 30 days.

Payment made on

November 26, 2021

As the payment is made within discount period, so discount will be availed

Discount = $81,000 x 3% = $2,430

Cash received = $81,000 - $2,430 = $78,570

December 15, 2021

As the payment is made after discount period, so no discount will be availed.  Full payment of $81,000 will be made.
