How to calculate the % extra discount off invoice to offer the customer
for a reduction in payment period

               
Annual Invoiced sales to the Customer (Ex. VAT)     
Customer now pays in    days  
We want them to pay in    days  
i.e.   day reduction in payment period  
       
Customer now pays   times per year (i.e. 365 divided by number of days to pay) 
We want them to pay   times per year (i.e. 365 divided by number of days to pay)
       
Amount they owe us when paying in   days  
=    
     
Amount they owe us when paying in   days  
=    
       
Therefore, cashflow saving =    
     
Say the customer's interest on deposits (or IRR*) is    % per year i.e (*IRR = Internal Rate of Return) 
     
Therefore, the interest on  for a year
=  
         
Which is equivalent to   % of our sales to the customer per year  
       
Therefore, any extra discount above   % is more valuable than putting the money on deposit, 
    earning % per year  
Cost & Value Calculations:            
Supplier's net margin = %        
Cost: Incremental sales required by supplier to recover settlement discount =        
           
Customers net margin = %        
Value: Therefore, incremental sales required by customer to recover settlement discount =
