2/15, n/45 means that the discount period is 2 days and the net payment period is 45 days.

 

The discount amount is 2% of $160,000, which is $3,200.The amount due after the discount period is $156,800.

 

The interest on $156,800 at 7% for 45 days is $4,800.

 

Therefore, the total amount due if the invoice is paid by May 15 is $152,000.

 

This is $4,800 less than the amount due if the invoice is paid after the discount period.


If Tiger Outdoors pays the invoice by May 15, it will save $4,800.
