Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
The company has a discount of 2% if they pay within 10 days. Since they paid on the 3rd day, they are eligible for the discount.

The original amount due is $1,800. The return of $200 brings down the amount to $1,600.

The company is eligible for a 2% discount, which is $32 ($1,600 x 0.02). Therefore, the amount paid on July 8 is $1,568 ($1,600 - $32).

Therefore, the answer is choice C, $1,568.
