The product differentiation hypothesis for corporate trade credit

Article Abstract:

The product differentiation hypothesis suggest an inverse relation between profit margin and trade credit in the event of an adjustment made for a minor disturbance in cost. A manager maintains revenue for price elastic demand by moderating the price increase and increases trade credit, which serves to maintain revenue by encouraging product demand.
