Step 2: Review the types of discounts mentioned in the problem: introductory discount, cash discount, quantity discount, and trade discount. Each has a distinct purpose and application.

Step 3: Define 'introductory discount': This is a discount offered only for the initial order to attract new customers or encourage first-time purchases.
