Explanation:

Credit terms of 2/10, n/30 mean that there is a 2% sales discount if the debt if the credit sale is settled in 10 days. If not, the person will have to pay in 30 days.

Truman paid within 10 days so qualifies for the discount which is:

= 5,800 * 2%

= $116

The amount paid will be:

= 5,800 - 116

= $5,684
