(i) Consignee:
The consignee is the individual or company to whom goods are shipped or sent. In a consignment arrangement, the consignee is the party that receives the goods for sale or further distribution. The consignee does not own the goods but is responsible for selling them on behalf of the consignor.

(ii) Consignor:
The consignor is the person or entity that sends or ships goods to another party, known as the consignee. The consignor retains ownership of the goods until they are sold by the consignee. Consignment arrangements are common in business, especially in retail, where manufacturers or wholesalers may send goods to retailers on a consignment basis.

(iii) Consignment Outward:
Consignment outward refers to the process of sending goods to another party on a consignment basis. In this transaction, the sender (consignor) dispatches goods to the receiver (consignee) for the purpose of sale. The consignor retains ownership until the goods are sold, and any unsold items may be returned to the consignor.

(iv) Del Credere Commission:
Del credere commission is a type of commission paid by a seller to an agent in addition to the regular commission. In this arrangement, the agent not only sells the goods on behalf of the principal but also guarantees payment for the goods sold. If the buyer fails to pay, the del credere agent is still obligated to pay the principal. This type of commission is often used in situations where there may be concerns about the creditworthiness of the buyer.

(v) Account Sales:
An account sales document is a record that provides details of sales transactions between a seller and a buyer. It typically includes information such as the quantity and description of the goods sold, the price, terms of sale, and any other relevant terms and conditions.
