Same for

I mentioned that, on new systems only, a 40% discount should be applied
to the base price of a 620-2179.  This was our instructions in the UK
for business partners.  So I would configure a 620-2179 and for pricing
would take 40% off of the base price (£54,879 UK) giving a reduction of
£21,951.60 of the overall price.
