observation

Means of payment were not well known by the candidates.  Some answers expected include:

  • Credit Card
  • Vouchers (luncheon, fuel etc)
  • Stamps
  • Bills of Exchange etc.

The part ‘b’ of the question was not also well attempted.

  • Quotation is the statement of current prices of products or services and also a reply to an enquiry.
  • Deferred payment is applicable to credit sales and seller transfers ownership of the goods to the buyer immediately.
  • Quantity discount: It is a reduction in the catalogue price of goods sold. It is given to encourage bulk purchase.
