Total amount: farm glossary
Total amount is the full value recorded for a sale, purchase or other farm transaction. It can come from a quantity multiplied by a unit price, with any agreed additions included. The total describes the whole transaction. Payments describe how much of that amount has already been settled and how much remains.
A farm example
For a feed delivery, the total can include the feed value and an agreed delivery charge. The invoice or purchase note identifies which items make up the amount.
Everyday use
