Promotion is a detailed discount. However, the discount is applied by providing the same material or any other material free of charge instead of decreasing the price. The quantity of materials provided can either be found with a simple calculation or may depend on a complex calculation according to the transaction amount, quantity of materials purchased and the quantity and amount of purchases from the company in question up to date.
