A vendor may choose to sell its goods on a consignment basis. In a consignment transaction, the vendor, as consignor, delivers goods to the buyer, as consignee.

In a tolling arrangement, a vendor usually supplies raw materials to a commodity processor for conversion into finished product. The processor then delivers the finished or partially finished product to the supplier, or the supplier's designee, and charges the supplier a fee for the processor's services.

Bankruptcy Code Section 503(b)(9) has seen more than its fair share of litigations just over the past several months, as reflected in the articles on Section 503(b)(9) that have appeared in recent issues of Business Credit. While Section 503(b)(9)'s requirements sound rather simple, that has not stopped debtors and trade creditors from litigating many of its seemingly straightforward terms. Erving Industries, Inc (Erving) filed Chapter 11 on Apr 20, 2009. On Jul 2, 2009, the Massachusetts bankruptcy court approved an order that set Aug 7, 2009 as the last day for creditors to file their Section 503(b)(9) "20-day goods" administrative priority claim. As is becoming apparent from the Erving Industries and Circuit City decisions, and all the other recent court decisions dealing with Sectio...
