The aim of the present paper is to study the problem that business administration confront and consists of whether the reduction in the unitary income from the provision of discounts (sales) is equal to at least the total increase of income derived from the exercise of the required demand. It consists of two parts. Part 1 is dedicated to the presentation of the problem in connection with relevant references. In Part 2 the best frequency of providing reductions is determined via a simple sales model which gives the determination of the necessary size of the sales' increase. The authors via methodology and presentation of examples propose that every enterprise has to create more than one situation of competition action or reaction in order to form a credit and sales approach, where the aims of the income will be in line with the long-term marketing strategy.
