Normal Payment Terms - Posted by Sean

Just call up a few companies in that industry and ask them what their payment and discount terms are. Many companies run on terms such as 1 percent 10, net 30. That means they expect to be paid in full in 30 days and if you pay in 10 days they’ll give you 1 percent off.
In theory this means the person would be willing to sell his obligation at a discount. You could always contact companies offering to buy receivables that are 10 days old for 99% of the face value. That’s a little over an 18% yield if you get paid in 20 days.
In all likelihood you wouldn’t get paid in 20 days, though. Many businesses are supposed to pay in 30 days but end up paying around 45. That’s only about a 10.4 percent yield, so maybe some fine-tuning might be in order.
I’d say start by buying the receivables at 98% of face value and if you find out later you can be more competitive, go for it.
