Standard payment terms
In general terms, the payment terms adopted by FP McCann are for invoices to be settled on the next payment run following the credit
terms requested by the respective supplier. These terms cover a range of periods mostly payment falling due at the end of one or two
months following the invoice date. Consequently, when the invoice is approved by the appropriate delegated authority, it is allocated for
payment accordingly. There have been no changes to this policy during the reporting period.
Payments made direct to bank accounts via BACS or via cheque.
