If the shop owner pay you $100 asking you to buy a present (from the same shop owner) worth $100. You agreed at the end to give 20% discount to the shop owner. How much is the actual price of this present?
Please comment base on Commercial Point of View and Technical Point of View.

Huh? If the gift costs $100, then you will give a discount at the end, it would be $80... The actual prize is still $100... Because you didn't give the discount before he paid $100... Correct me if I'm wrong...

your question is flawed. If you are buying, you cannot give a discount.
the seller can give a discount.
