‘打折’的英文表达

打折(discount)指货物或服务(goods/service)价格的减少(reduction)。此处的价格包括出厂价(manufacturer's list price)、零售价(retail price)和报价(list price)。打折原因通常包括促进短期销售业绩(increase short-term sales)、处理库存(move out-of-date stock)、回报重要客户(reward valuable customers)、鼓励销售渠道成员(encourage distribution channel members)等,大多属于促销手段(sales promotion)。打折有很多种情况,常见的包括季节性打折(seasonal discount),通常在所谓的淡季(slack period)。讨价还价(bargaining)也是获得折扣的一种方法。数量累积折扣(cumulative quantity discount / accumulation discount)指多买少算的规模经济(economy of scale),团购(buyer group / co-op)属于这种情况。

优惠券(coupon)是另一种常见的打折方式。它是一种凭证(voucher),说明持有者(holder)可以获得一定金额(amount)或一定百分比(percentage)的折扣。

现金返还(rebate)通常指全额付款后返回一部分现金给购买者。现在很多商场搞的返券活动应该属于此类,只是程序简单些。例如,广告上说‘$39 After Rebate’,但全价(OTD / Out-the-door)是$79,这里消费者需要办理返现(redeem)的金额是40美元。

此外还有促销让利(promotional allowance)或代理折让(brokerage allowance)等。
