That closely resembles the situation of credit card rebates on purchases. As to the argument wanting to  distribute to reduce all expenses  paid during that billing period, is that also being done in reverse with interest charges (if any -- often a business credit card is not intended as a source of credit and balance paid each month -- and SOME people ca manage that with their personal credit cards too)
