Among the cash management techniques used by most businesses are those that slow down their bill payments. A good example for this is the concept of cash rebates. Cash rebates are most commonly offered on household items like computers and other electronics.

Select a business with which you are familiar, and explain whether you would recommend this business to use cash rebates.
