Out of short positions by buying back shares is called "covering a short". Easy, someone borrowed other people's shares to be sold at market price. Then the person is hoping that the stock's price down so that could be bought back at lower prices to be returned to its owner (in stocks) and pocketing the profits (the difference between selling price and buying price).
Purchase limits

Many industrial countries have rules that require that lending based on collateral from other stocks, this borrowing must be within certain percentages of other stock prices. Other rules include the prohibition of "freeriding" (penungangan free); ie, put the message to buy shares without paying first, and then sell it and use the profits to pay the purchase price previously.

Tip Opening Pharmacy Business
I am a pharmacist, plans to open a pharmacy business. Differentiation about what I have developed, given the competition in the pharmacy business very much.
Hopefully the efforts you take care of establishing a pharmacy running smoothly so far, both in terms of licensing and contract with the producer / distributor of the drug.
Differentiation is necessary to be able to compete in a market full of competition in the pharmacy business is. However, first I want to remind you not to forget things? standard? which also can affect the success of the business opportunities you.
First of all, location. Remember, although the distance between pharmacies are not regulated by the government, but you must consider the potential of the region, such as population and the population's purchasing power. There should also consider the existence of other health services in the area, such as doctors, health centers, hospitals, and of course, other pharmacies. And a strategic location for a pharmacy building will determine whether consumers would be interested in coming to a pharmacy you or even stop by the competitors because of its more accessible to vehicles or public transportation.
Second, do not forget to complete the building and pharmacy equipment. Do not let the consumer's first experience shopping in a pharmacy does not charge you, either at the time of waiting for a prescription is prepared or in the case of the poor quality of drugs that are redeemed for lack of a pharmacy standard equipment. Remember, a happy customer is a return customer.
Well, in terms of differentiation, try to arrange for such dispensaries small convenience store. Start thinking about what products can you sell in pharmacies and gentlemen, that a lot of products in demand. I'm sure you've seen a pharmacy chain store such as Century or Guardian. Well, you can mimic the layout of the pharmacy network. For example, if you around a bit difficult to find a seller of cosmetics, consider selling beauty products there. Small food and drink you could also consider, that in addition to increasing revenue, will also increase the comfort of buyers waiting for prescriptions drugs. Noteworthy is that goods impulsive nature (consumers interested in buying the saw) should be in the front rack, if necessary, right in front of the entrance.
After the goods are impulsive, you can put a shelf filled with traditional medicines such as herbal medicine. Faithful followers of traditional medicines in Indonesia are still many, and the margin could be more attractive than selling branded drug where the drug manufacturer snapper class has the power to impose small price to distributors. Rack containing vitamins (once again, a product that promises greater profits) can also be placed in the front row.
Then prepare a rack that contains free medicines / OTC. To distinguish with other pharmacies, complete the collection of free drugs was as much as possible, especially the superior product. If the pharmacy you more complete than the drugstore competitors, consumers will be more likely to choose a pharmacy Dad, even though for example, the selling price a little more expensive.

How to Prepare Pension Fund
I am a 37-year-old father with one child aged 10 years, working non-permanent (freelance) in the field of construction services, with no fixed income as well. Wife a homemaker.
How appropriate steps to provide the funds our old days, also please input of a suitable sideline to increase income.
Current financial position I am investing in government retail bonds (ORI) of Rp190 million for the period of three years.
Related questions you, according to my calculations, at least you can still work up to 18 years before retiring. This is the period where you should try to optimally increase the amount of retirement savings later.
However, you will also experience a period where there will be spending large sums of money, such as children enter junior high school, high school and then college, not to mention the regular expenditures in the form of monthly fees and book money.
With all the limitations of information from you, I tried to make a retirement plan for you. Prior to this retirement age, I assume that you will be able to meet the needs of you without relying on revenue savings. I assume that after retirement you will pay for two people living alone, because your son should have been independent. I also assume that you and your wife will be live until the age of 75 years and did not want to leave a legacy for your son (wealth will be exhausted when you die).
I assume that you need for family life after retirement (age 55 years) of constant worth Rp 5 million per month (current value), increases with inflation, which I assume by 10 percent a year.
Based on the assumptions above, then you need the money around Rp4, 15 billion to be able to live a decent old at the time you for about 20 years.
This is the assumption that you can get a return on investment (deposit) amounting to 5 per cent a year net of the retirement fund you. This is only rough calculations, but should be fairly accurate.
Well, assuming you retire 18 years from now, and assuming an investment yield rate of 25 percent per annum in the long term (focused on investments Mutual Funds Stocks aggressive type), you should save around Rp1, 2 million a month until the time you retire to get the number of Rp4, 15 billion at the time of retirement (Rp3, 45 billion of this investment, plus Rp700 million developing the retail bond investments you currently at 9.5 percent interest rate).
Once again, count-hitunganan this depends on the set of assumptions. For example, if you live longer than 75 years, there is risk of property you would run out before you die, known as Longevity risk. Or, if the inflation rate above 10 percent while the yield remained accumulated wealth or down, then you have to spend more money during retirement is to be targeted.
For a side job ideas, I can not recommend a proper job because I did not not know exactly how much free time you have each week, interest, and the network you have. However, I am sure you will find these opportunities and adapt to the conditions you. To remember is, the amount of investment deposit Rp1, 2 million above the minimum target of as much as you may have to be added to margin of safety and should be reviewed at least every two years.

How to Manage Budget Wedding?
In the near future I will hold the wedding on December 13, 2009. The plan located in one of the famous building capital.
If seen, our class is a class B. That is, not high class, the class is also not simple. Our budget Rp70 million. We want a traditional Javanese wedding, this elegant impression. Until now we have not done anything but rent the building. Rental buildings around Rp8 million.
Given the very mepet time, what we should do. I wonder what should we do if want to be more efficient again? How much should we allocate for invitations, souvenirs, wedding, catering. Where invitations and cheap souvenirs.
Can be counted, counts. What should I do first? Which priorities should I dahulukan? I was really blank.
Could you please help me to detail, given the very mepet time? I do not want to wear wedding organizer (WO). Because although it seems cheaper and more practical, but actually it is more expensive because the cost for the WO.
Given that your time is very urgent, I can recommend only two steps for you to execute immediately:
First, you have to do now is find a place invitation cards and souvenirs. These two things take time / process longer. Because your time is very urgent, you can go to the market such Tebet Barat / Jatinegara to create invitation cards and souvenirs.
There is more competitive prices because many similar businesses there. We recommend that when you go there, had brought the draft laws that have been fixed to be printed, so no need to go back and forth over there just to edit again.
We recommend also make the design as simple as possible in order to quickly finish its construction. Give me a week to be completed by the printing, so you still have time to share with the invitation.
For a cheap souvenir alternatively you can go Jatinegara market or Pasar Pagi. There already is also a variety of souvenirs. Budget for at least one card Rp5.000, - and souvenir Rp2.000 minimal. Customize your stay with a number of invited guests.
Second, visited the salon provides traditional Javanese wedding packages. There you can also consult a lot with the salon. I suggest you take the package. Because usually have available a variety of alternative wedding dress, a traditional Javanese (dodot), clothes for the reception, among guests, flowers hand, flower decorations and others.
Even for the catering and even videos you can shoot a message at the same place. Salon which provides a complete wedding package is generally already have a vendor / partner. You live in consultation with the consultant a lot there.
For the budget I think you better consultation on this place, too, because the calculation must have a thorough and fix.
So our answer, and remember to avoid stress. Better, enjoy your wedding preparations. Perform each process with calm, and do not let others force you to do things that make or exceed the cost of the ability to swell and time.

Could you please help me to detail, given the very mepet time? I do not want to wear wedding organizer (WO). Because although it seems cheaper and more practical, but actually it is more expensive because the cost for the WO.
Given that your time is very urgent, I can recommend only two steps for you to execute immediately:
First, you have to do now is find a place invitation cards and souvenirs. These two things take time / process longer. Because your time is very urgent, you can go to the market such Tebet Barat / Jatinegara to create invitation cards and souvenirs.
There is more competitive prices because many similar businesses there. We recommend that when you go there, had brought the draft laws that have been fixed to be printed, so no need to go back and forth over there just to edit again.
We recommend also make the design as simple as possible in order to quickly finish its construction. Give me a week to be completed by the printing, so you still have time to share with the invitation.
For a cheap souvenir alternatively you can go Jatinegara market or Pasar Pagi. There already is also a variety of souvenirs. Budget for at least one card Rp5.000, - and souvenir Rp2.000 minimal. Customize your stay with a number of invited guests.
Second, visited the salon provides traditional Javanese wedding packages. There you can also consult a lot with the salon. I suggest you take the package. Because usually have available a variety of alternative wedding dress, a traditional Javanese (dodot), clothes for the reception, among guests, flowers hand, flower decorations and others.
Even for the catering and even videos you can shoot a message at the same place. Salon which provides a complete wedding package is generally already have a vendor / partner. You live in consultation with the consultant a lot there.
For the budget I think you better consultation on this place, too, because the calculation must have a thorough and fix.
So our answer, and remember to avoid stress. Better, enjoy your wedding preparations. Perform each process with calm, and do not let others force you to do things that make or exceed the cost of the ability to swell and time.

Time for Investing Now!
Klabers that depositors and savers, already dizzy with lower interest rates now?
Indeed, low interest rates today should make us re-count with all our financial plans, especially if we make a placement container deposits as our main money because that seems to yield no longer means much less when compared to inflation.
At times like this Klabers required to be more creative in investing. If we are too dependent on the deposit, there is a risk that we will not be able to achieve our financial objectives future, especially if interest rates are? Prone? like now.
Let's see the following illustration. Suppose Klabers want to send their children Klabers the current 5-year-old out of the country at the time of the baby's 18-year-old, and the money they need now is equivalent to Rp500 million. With the assumption of inflation in the cost of overseas education, the money needed Klabers next 13 years is equivalent to the possibility of increased Rp943 million.
Well, money should we set aside to meet these needs depends on the yield (return) of our investments. Suppose we put it in a savings account that only two percent of the net interest a year, then the revenue should we set aside approximately Rp5.260.000 per month.
When we enter into a deposit of six per cent net interest a year, then the funds we need down to about Rp3.970.000 per month. Well, if Klabers put it in mutual funds that generate 10 percent of the net a year, then that should be set aside monthly will go down again to about Rp2.930.000 and so on. Not visible, the importance of investing our money in the right instrument?
Klabers should note that after the return must be balanced with the level of risk that can and dare to take Klabers. One of the main principle in finance is the higher the return offered, the greater the risk. So, not to in order to meet future needs, Klabers be careless and take the risk exceeds the level of risk that can Klabers received.

What Is Emergency Fund?
The earthquake that occurred in Sumatera Barat (West Sumatra) has caused many deaths and injuries, and among them there are our brothers. The condition of this natural disaster is not predictable and certainly not by anyone we want, but the fact other than non-material losses that are priceless, the material losses were said to reach trillions of rupiah. For victims, victims' families, and sympathizers outside West Sumatra, this is the time emergency funds can play a role.
Emergency fund is a fund allocation should be one of the basic financial goals of each person. Useful especially to cover urgent needs, but not yet budgeted aka incidental, especially if the wage earner got laid off, or liquidation of a company or business losses.
But the development of emergency funds are also useful for many things such incidental and emergency if they are not achieving the target of education funds when needed, the excess cost of vehicle services, needs renovation leaky roof, until the unfortunate financial support for death or medical support, clothing -food-board because of natural disasters that happened recently.
Emergency funds are generally calculated based on a certain scale. According Klab KeluargaCerdas123, emergency funding is determined based on the consideration of marital status, routine monthly expenses, and income patterns. Required for single people to routine monthly expenses 4x, 6x married without children, married with one child 9x, married with two children or more 12x, 12x retirees, and 12x freelancers.
Is there a savings fund allocation that has not got a specific financial goals? Now this could be converted to an emergency fund first. Klabers can open accounts in the form of emergency fund investment products and illiquid nature more secure. Examples of these products are savings accounts, deposits and money market funds. If the initial emergency fund is still below the ideal targets, have to calculate the deposit Klabers investment per month in accordance with its funding has been calculated. It should be remembered that investment principles also apply here, the greater the amount of deposit per month and more often we put up the faster our emergency fund will be achieved. But the characteristics of the emergency fund should be liquid resulting returns are not too large, so increasing the return is not the main option in this case.
The challenge for you and me? Consumer habits in the first sequence table challenge everyone. People used to dig and cover the hole with a credit card. This is equivalent to storing real time bomb. Then the next challenge is the habit of delaying the work. We're talking here about self-discipline. Discipline aside emergency money if funds are still below target, so the need to periodically invest to reach the ideal target of an emergency fund.

4. Note the related burden of credit card: Remember, the use of credit cards also have loads before you may not realize, for example, the cost of stamp duty and transfer fees via ATM.

Yes, the insurance comes as a way out so he could sleep soundly. Insurance is a financial product that provides protection to one party by releasing / sharing the risks to others more expert in managing the risk / are willing to bear the burden together.
The question that arises is what kind of insurance that can be used, how the characteristics and benefits of what we receive?

2. Life Insurance is divided into three types, including term insurance, life insurance, and dual-purpose insurance. Term insurance is life insurance product which provides protection for policyholders risk of dying within a certain period, while life insurance will provide protection when the insured dies at any time. Dual-purpose of insurance is a combination of term insurance and life that will pay the sum assured at the end of the contract.

Included here is the Motor Vehicle Insurance or Insurance Property Assets in the event of fires and floods; credit insurance that pays part or all of the assumed liabilities insured in case of layoffs, accidents, or death. Lenders mortgage insurance, for example, belonged to this category; liability insurance coverage that provides broad protection for the insured against claims by other parties who have losses from accidents that occurred due to the operation of the assets of the insured; special accident insurance that provides protection for the accident because of the risk of crime or politics, but is not related only to specific property assets.

There are some people assess damages if just pay the money without additional cash benefits. Therefore dikemaslah protection products with capital market instruments and money market real risk in it. The difference is the deposit premium paid divided by two: the portion of premium protection and investment portion and then channeled to the investment manager.
In the midst of a growing risk of higher life choices to provide the best for the people we love belongs to each of us. Are we going to give? If yes, when are we going to start?

INTRODUCTION "Accounting Roles" THE MANAGER....
Introduction to Accounting Roles For Managers will discuss the development of "accounting roles" from the beginning to the latest developments, how the accounting ultimately affect the "non-financial manager's roles" associated with the use of financial information. Later discussion will include: Accounting, accountability and Accounts, a brief history of accounting, the role of management accounting, Management Accounting Development Events.
Post this topic I think is important, especially for colleagues who did not come from the background of accounting / finance. With this post, I hope colleagues can have a perspective and placing accounting and finance as it should without a drive by thinking (read: penilian) the excess of accounting (neither under-nor over-estimates-estimates).
Accounting for Managers, obviously we'll talk more (discuss) accounting of his management side than accounting techniques, would be much use management terms. There'll be plenty to talk about the aggregate of the entity. If you think in this category we will be much talk about the journals, the treatments, it will not be in this category. Instead, here will be much talked about: strategy-strategy, analyisis-analysis, and the tactic associated with decision-making are implicated and implications for financial, value-added, profit, performance, goal achievement as a management team.
Is this specifically intended for those managers who plays it?
The answer: Certainly not. Although in this category do not membahasa journals and treatments, knowing (if you can explore) managerialnya side of a progress. Learn about techniques of analysis, to interpret financial statements and then made the strategic decision-making tool, is not that a valuebale knowledge? . Well, the point if you like to learn, like the improvement, like progress, does not want to go out on a place, want to tread the path wider and spacious. Let's go and read on ....
Businesses exist to provide goods (products) and services (services) to customers in order to obtain financial rewards (returns back / wan-achievement). Meanwhile, public sector (public-sector) and non-profit organizations (non-profit organization) also provides services, although financial resources did not come from customers, but from the government or charity donations and other forms.
While this post-series is primarily Concerned with profit-oriented businesses, but I believe most of the principles-principles that will be considered equally applicable to public sector and non-profit organization.
I (probably all those accounting) fully aware that "Business is not about accounting", essence of a business accounting is not, definitely not. Business is on the market, the people (suppliers & customers) and their operations (delivery of goods / services).
However, the accounting implications of all business decisions. Why? Since accounting is a representation of business activities.
AAA (= American Accounting Association) mendifiniskan accounting in 1966 as:
"The process of Identifying, measuring and communicating economic information to permit informed Judgments and decisions by users of the information".
This definition is important, because:
[-]. It recognizes that accounting is a process: that process is Concerned with capturing business events, recording their financial effect, summarizing and reporting the result of those effects, and interpreting those results (we will discuss in subsequent postings).
[-]. It is Concerned with economic information: while this is predominantly financial, it also allows for non-financial information (we will discuss in my postings later)
[-]. Its purpose is to support "informed Judgments and decisions" by users: this emphasizes the decision usefulness of accounting information and the broad spectrum of 'users' of that information (we will discuss in subsequent postings).

Accounting, Corporate Finance & Shareholder
Before discussing Accounting, Corporate Finance & Shareholder. I want to Ask: Have you ever heard the term "Market"? It must never, even mendefiniskannya. Ever heard the term "Capital Market (Capital Market)"? Of course often. Ever heard of product market? Then, if I ask: Bagimana relationship capital market and product market? How are they interlated? Maybe some one knows, and some may not know, or are not sure know. Ever heard of Corporate Finance? if you know what the relationship with the accounting Corporate finance? Then what is the relationship with shareholders both Corporate Finance and Strategy? All that is important for you to know, especially if you work dibagian accounting and finance. Particularly if you are a Financial Controller, you must know about this. If there is not know, do not worry, we will biacarakan about it in a minute.
To obtain a clear picture of all that, I will talk about from the very beginning .....
Shareholders
Since the 17th century, businessmen began to introduce the name LLC (Limited Liability Company =) is in Indonesia known as limited liability (PT), where responsibility (liability) business within its business activity was limited to the amount of capital (that is realized in the form of shares) invested only. No more.
Business owners (read: shareholders) appoint a director (sometimes several directors) to manage their business. Director who then raised his manager to help manage the business manages. Ranging from operational planning, marketing, human resources, accounting and finance, and to execute plans that have been made, to evaluate it.
Shareholder power to choose (determine) director, appoint independent auditors in the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, and is entitled to an annual report containing the financial performance of the company, which we are familiar with financial statements.
Okay, related to accounting & financial market there are 2 kinds, namely:
[1]. Capital Market
[2]. Product / Services Market
Next we discuss, one by one, what's the capital market and what products / services market. At the end of the discussion we'll get a relationship between capital market and product market, related to financial issues.
Capital Market
Capital Market (Capital Market) is a market where the investors (shareholders) memperjual buy stocks which we are familiar with the "Stock Exchange (Stock Exchange)". In Indonesia there are so far only 2, namely the Jakarta Stock Exchange and Surabaya Stock Exchange.
Companies usually get funding (both initial and additional) of the shareholders memalui issuance of shares (equity), sometimes also from financial institutions in the forms of loans (debt). Top funds obtained would lead to cost. Cost arising from the use of funds in running the business (business) this is called the Cost of Capital (Burden of Capital).
Cost of Capital consists of:
[-]. Cost Of Equity, in the form: Dividend and Capital Growth, which is part of the benefits paid (read: return) to shareholders.
[-]. Cost Of Debt, in the form: interest (interest), ie a certain amount (read: price) charged by the lender (financial institution / financier).
Product Market
After getting the funds to operate, of course, the company will invest (read: play) funds in raw materials, human resources and technology to be able to buy or sell, hand over the goods or services received. This is called the product market.
Critical Question: So what is the relation between the Capital Market to Market Product?
Relationship Capital Market & Product Market
Focus of the business owners (shareholders) in his accumulation of wealth is: GET LEVEL RATE (COST of Debt) THAT TER-LOW OF CAPITAL MARKET FOR LATER by exploiting DIINVETASIKAN PRODUCT MARKET imperfections.
What is meant by imperfection market product? the gap between supply and demand in various sources (raw materials, human resources, technology and all its circumatnces). That is where the future is expected to obtain the difference, (the difference between a surplus of course) which was later known as PROFIT (profit), which the financial statements will be accumulated in retained earnings, and then distributed (read: return) to shareholders as dividends.
All shareholders would expect the highest gain in a consistent and continuously either from equity (in the form of dividends) or of increasing its stock price in the capital markets from time to time.
If the company (which funds in invetasikan) succeeded in realizing the objectives (goal) set by the shareholder, the shareholder will obtain the highest gains through the acquisition of dividends. The success of shareholder gain high dividends and increased stock value (stock price) from time to time that management relationship with the Capital Market is known or FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT CORPORATE FINANCE. And since the 1990s accounting roles taking an increasingly dominant role in providing tools-tools for those managers to make decisions to mengahasilkan profit (return) high, and the tools and accurate financial information for corporate finance to financial management (financial management) in order to provide value added sharareholder (sva) the highest.
Accounting role in providing tools for regulating the financial and business strategy to achieve maximum shareholder value added is very important. Up-coming post is about Shareholder Value Added, to answer the questions: What is Shareholder Value Added? Why Shareholder Value Added is Crucial? Shareholder Value Added Bagimana measured? Whatever mendrive shareholder value added?. Talk to you on the next post!

Quality SALES ANALYSIS
Quality Analysis of Sales (sales quality analysis) is important to do. Why? How to do the analysis? That topic will be discussed in this post.
When closing the book, often the sales to accounting to ask: "How many of our sales this month?" Obviously they want to know how much sales, and string (other purpose) behind this question can vary:
[1]. How my commission this month (this may be the most important)
[2]. How my incentive this month (if you receive a salary + incentive)
For this question, of course the answer is easy, right? Once again, obviously the question is how the total sales this month. And the answer is, you live to see the big book sale, or see the sales account (sales) in the income statement.
Usually, the questioner will be more satisfied if you want a little to open the spreadsheet, then calculate:
For example:
Sales = USD $ 100,000,000
Commission = 5% x 100,000,000 = 5,000,000
Then you quickly give an answer:
"Sales Total = USD $ 100,000,000 and the commission you USD 5,000,000 (tax cut)"
If the commission considerable number, of the questioner will be satisfied smile, but if the numbers are relatively small commission, perhaps the questioner will ask further: "small koq ya?, So how to count the count?, Should not I be a printout of sales?" and so forth. Calculation of commission so simple become so complicated for him, to have to ask "how to count the count?" :-)
Surely it is common situation we face in accounting.
Quality Sales Analysis
Illustration above, is a simple schema, and the question is sales.
What if the question is Mr. Director?
"Ahem .. ahem! (trying to adjust the pressure so much like the director's voice) "Bagimana our sales this month?".
Questions pack is almost the same president of the questions from the sales, almost the same. But if you are observant, this question is very different susungguhnya.
Are you going to give the same answer (total sales + commission)? Or the total sales?
If your position is still clerk or bookkeeper up, probably a simple answer (total sales commission opponent) can be tolerated. But if your position is higher than that and you give the same answer, believe may be up to two years, your career will continue at the current position.
Then what exactly the answer expected by a major director, about the sales?.
The question is quite clearly "What we penjulan this month?", Begins with the word what (how?) Is not "how". So the answer is clearly not the total sales, but "good / okay / worst".
That's it? of course not, should be followed with good reason, why okay, why the worst. Or more precisely: how good it is or how worst it is.
Not just total sales you want to know, but a far more important than just numbers (balance) on the account, namely:

ACCOUNTING TREATMENT OF RECEIVABLES (AR)...
Especially in the trade (business area) is so competitive these days, it was a credit sale has become a necessity.

Understandable, because small businesses (particularly the newly paved) is certain focus and direct all its resources for development, business development, while still on the administrative side of superiority after the limited human resources (as a consequence of the small capital, too, of course).
Often we see the balance sheet that contains two types of accounts receivable: Accounts Receivable and Accounts Receivable. What is the difference between these two types of these debts? Was this grouping is good?
Sometimes there is also a report of the element Wesel Receivables (Notes Receiavble) in the Balance Sheet. What types of receivables that? What's the difference with other types of receivables?
Not seldom do we find the financial statements (in this case mereca / balance sheet) that do not distinguish the types of accounts separately, but only mentioned the one that is: Accounts Receivable (AR) or the Receivables only. Why?

Discounts, Sales Returns, Warranty
How does the discount (discount)? How does this work?. Return Bagimana sales treatment and provision for sales returns? How diperpalukan warranty? That topic is discussed in this post. The existence of a discount (discount), sales returns, and warranties are often not getting enough servings of accounting discussions, whether in books or in college. In fact, the trading companies, especially retailers, discount, sales returns and warranty is the issue, a very dominant issue in the administration of the company.
Discount (Discount)
There are 2 common types of discounts given to customers, namely: Trade Discount / Rebate (Discount Offers / Rabat) and Sales (Cash) Discount (Discount Sales). Many of us are still mixed-up about the two types of this discount.
For a brief description:
Most retailers set price in the publishing catalog or brochure, the real price is given at the time of realization of the sale occurred. Then how the recording? This is the issue that occurs in the world of multiple trading.
In the payment term (ie: 2 / 10; N/30), the company as the seller also offers another discount as an incentive for customers to make payments more quickly. Bagimana the procedure, how they relate to the discount that was given at the time of purchase confirmation occurs. This is another issue, the second issue we need to know.
Sales Return (Sales Returns).
In each sale, there's always the possibility of goods kembli (returns), either because of defective goods or because the order does not meet specifications. How to handle returns done?
