Using the dating method, calculate the discount date and the net date. Unless otherwise specified, the net date is 20 days after the discount date:

Do not abbreviate the names of the months.

Date of Invoice Terms of Sale Discount Date Net Date
       
April 6 2/10, EOM    

 I got the discount date and net date wrong.

and what is eom?

I'm not a business pro...but I think this means this.....you get a 2% discount if you pay the whole thing witihin 10 days......normally, the net date  would be 20 days after the discount date (May 6), but I believe the "EOM" means that you must pay the whole amount 10 days after the end of the month.....in effect, the EOM extends the "net date" by 4 days

The discount date would be April 16

The net date would be 10 days after the end of the month = May 10

I think this is correct.......
