Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -What Does 2/10 Net 30 Mean? 2/10 Net 30 refers to the trade credit offered to a customer for the sale of goods or services. 2/10 net 30 means that if the amount due is paid within 10 days, the customer will enjoy a 2% discount. Otherwise, the amount is due in full within 30 days.

Detailed explanation-2: -A 2/10 net 30 (also known as 2 10 net 30) means the balance will be discounted by 2% if the buyer makes a payment within the first ten days. So the “2” represents the discount amount (2%) and the “10” represents the due date (10 days out).

Detailed explanation-3: -2/10 net 30 is a trade credit often offered by suppliers to buyers. It represents an agreement that the buyer will receive a 2% discount on the net invoice amount if they pay within 10 days. Otherwise, the full invoice amount is due within 30 days. It’s one of the most used formulations of an early payment discount.

Detailed explanation-4: -If a buyer is able to pay an invoice in full within the first ten days, they will receive a 2 percent discount on the net amount. However, if a buyer misses the 10-day window, they must pay the full amount of the invoice on or before 30 days.

Detailed explanation-5: -Subtract the discount percentage from 100% and divide the result into the discount percentage. For example, under 2/10 net 30 terms, you would divide 2% by 98% to arrive at 0.0204. This is the interest rate being offered through the credit terms.
