The individual cost of each tank for your country would have been $120,000 each, which for a tank is quite remarkably cheap. At your proposed price, the per tank price would lower to $100,000 - exceptionally cheap.

The Minister of Defence has directed this department to inform you that our offer of $18,000,000 will stand. However, if your country would still like to purchace the tanks we would be willing to accept a initial price of 1$10 million, with the remainding $8million to be paid over the next 4 months at 0% interest.

Would you still be interested?
