- Knights Technologies is considering changing its credit terms from 2/15, n/30 to 3/10, n/30 to speed collections. At present 40% of Knights paying customers take the 2% discount. Under the new terms, discount customers are expected to rise to 50%. Regardless of the credit terms, half of the customers who would not take discount are expected to pay on time, whereas the remainder will pay 10 days late.
