Long company does not qualifies for discount because the term of discount is 1/10 it means 1% discount will be allowed if the payment by the buyer is made within 10 days. But Jones company purchased good on March 7 and payment was made on March 19. So Jones company does not qualify for discount.

 

 Long, the buyer pays for shipping. In common practice also always the buyer pays shipping.
