Revenue After Optional Discounts

EasySQL15 min10 XP

Problem

Return order_id and net_amount as amount minus discount, treating NULL discount as 0.

Why This Matters

SQL interviews usually test whether you can turn a business question into the right rows, grouping level, join type, and edge-case behavior.

Schema

orders(order_id INTEGER, amount INTEGER, discount INTEGER)

Examples

Example 1
Inputone NULL discount
Output100 and 85

COALESCE turns NULL discount into 0 before subtraction.

Constraints

  • Return only the requested columns.
  • Use deterministic ORDER BY when multiple rows are returned.
  • Assume SQLite-compatible SQL unless the prompt states otherwise.
