Invoice

This invoice is rather more complicated. It is from Glaston Potteries to their Canadian customers MacKenzie Bros. It would be sent with copies and shipping documents to The Canadian Union Trust Bank via the Burnley Bank who are their agents in England. These documents prove that a shipment has been made from Glaston to MacKenzie so that the Canadian bank can now release the money that MacKenzie Bros, committed to pay in their Letter of Credit. There will also be additional charges that MacKenzie Bros, pay their bank for handling the transaction.

It might be helpful to refer back to letters 3.3.3, 4.3.3,5.4.5, and 5.4.6 to remind yourself of the enquiry, reply, order, and advice that have been sent during the correspondence between MacKenzie's agents and Glaston Potteries.

You will see from the invoice that cost, insurance, and freight charges have been deducted from the gross price. This is because under UK law the customer must be told exactly what he is paying for. And in this case c.i.f. has also been deducted so that the 10% special discount can be taken off the net price.

Questions

1. What is the net total of the invoice?

2. How have Glaston explained they have the right to correct the invoice if there is a mistake?

3. What sort of transaction is this?

4. Which reference would MacKenzie use when referring to this invoice?

5. How are the items identified?

6. What does the sign @ mean?
