ROG means - Receipt of goods i.e the due date start from the Date the goods are receipt

7/10 EOM Payment terms means payment is due End of following month in which goods are inoviced/received and a discount of 7% will provided if the payment is made in the first 10 days of the following month.

FOB meant Free on Board i.e. the price are incliding freight.

In the given case

Goods invoice on 26th February

Good Received on 19th March

Payment made on 12th April

Invoice value - $ 5010

Transport charge paid by MAnufacture - $ 172

Based on above parameter

Invoice due for payment is April 30th (EOM following the month good received)

Discount of 7% if the invocie is paid within first 10 days of the following month so a Last date for getting discount will be 10th April.

Since the payment are made on 12th April which after the date for discount there will be no discount and as per payment term of FOB the invoice is inclusive of freight, hence the retailer will required to remit invoice value of $,5010.
