现在不论是装修还是拍婚纱照,大家都喜欢留个尾款最后再付,目的是为了保证质量,那么“尾款”用英语如何表达呢?
Retainage is an amount of money withheld from full payment until work is completed. It is withheld to assure that contractor will satisfy its obligations and complete a project.
尾款是留到工作完成后才支付的钱。尾款的目的是为了保证承包商履行义务干完工程。
Example:
There is a 5 percent retainage to be withheld on this project.
这项工程留有5%的余款。
