Answer:

There are two primary types of discounts in accounting that might occur in your small business – trade discounts and cash discounts. A trade discount occurs when you reduce your sales price for a wholesale customer, such as on a bulk order. This type of discount does not appear in your accounting records or on your financial statements specifically.
