Quantity Discount
(redirected from Quantity discounts)

    Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Quantity Discount
A lower price per unit a company charges in exchange for the purchase of a large number of units. For example, if the usual price for a product is $5 per unit and a buyer asks to purchase 10,000 units, the company may offer a quantity discount and only charge $3 per unit. Quantity discounts exist to encourage large orders, which, while they may reduce profit margin, increase revenue and therefore raw profit.
