Add Definitions!

[edit]

This article should start with a definition of trade credit! Instead, it starts with the Wal-Mart example, which tells nothing about how a trade credit is characterized. The article should build up a definition and illustrations of trade credit in a more systematic way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.171.104.93 (talk) 17:03, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Discounts

[edit]

should a section be added on trade discounts, as well as the implied interest cost of foregoing a trade credit discount?

i.e. - if the terms are 1/10 n/30, then the terms imply an interest rate of approximately 1% for 20 days (30-10). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.80.98.50 (talk) 13:52, 4 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Info

[edit]

Is there any information on what the most common form of trade credit is in various industries? (eg net 15 vs net 30 vs net 60 etc).--Drucci 06:24, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
