ten new computers for $880 each.
Total bill:
$880*10=$8,800
received a 20% discount
First discounted pric
$8800-20%of 8800(discount)=$7040
additional 6% discount because it took immediate delivery
Additional discounted price:
$7040-6%*of 7040 =$ 6617.6

Paid within the cash discount period, so they get an additional 2% discount therefore the invoice will be:
$6617.60-2% of 6616.60 = $6485.25 ~ $6485
