Identify four discount basis options available that define how Receivable calculates discounters (Choose four.)

Question

Options

• Agross amount
• Bfreight amount
• CInvoice amount
• Dlines only amount
• Elines and tax amount
• Flines, freight, and tax amount

• A
  7% (3)
• B
  2% (1)
• C
  91% (40)

Explanation

In Oracle Receivables, the four valid Discount Basis options represent meaningful, distinct calculation bases: Invoice amount (the full invoice total), Lines only (just the line items, excluding tax and freight), Lines and tax (line items plus tax), and Lines, freight, and tax (all components except nothing is excluded). These four give finance teams flexible control over exactly what portion of a transaction a discount applies to.

A (Gross amount) is incorrect because Oracle AR does not use "gross amount" as a named discount basis - it is not a recognized configuration option in the system. B (Freight amount) is incorrect because freight alone is never a standalone basis for discount calculation; it only appears as an included component within option F.

Memory tip: Think of it as a layered inclusion model - start with the core (Lines only), then optionally layer in Tax, then Freight, and the shortcut Invoice amount covers everything at once. If it's not a logical "layer" or the full total, it's not a valid basis.
