A
January 11
B

C

D
February 15
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Many firms offer credit terms 2/10, n/30 (read as “two ten, net thirty”). This means you get a 2% discount if you pay within 10 days of receiving the invoice. You must pay the bill within 30 days or you start to incur interest charges.

Detailed explanation-2: -True, the terms 2/10, net/30 mean that a 2 percent discount is allowed on payments made within the 10 days discount period. This discount serves as an incentive for a company to pay its bills promptly and to reduce the effort that the seller might have to exert to collect.

Detailed explanation-3: -2/10 net 30, defined as the trade credit in which clients can opt to either receive a 2 percent discount for payment to a vendor within 10 days or pay the full amount (net) of their accounts payable in 30 days, is extremely common in business to business sales.
