Calculation:
July 12:
Merchandise sold to Sanchez Co. for $1,200 under credit terms of 2/10, n/60 on Jul. 02
Here,
2 represent the sales discount in percentage
10 represent the discount period in days
n/60 represent the net due period in days i.e. 60 days
And Sanchez Co. paid due balance within discount period
So,
Sales discount = Accounts receivable-Sanchez Co. * Sales discount in percentage
= $1,200 * 2%
= $24
Cash = Accounts receivable-Sanchez Co. - Sales discount
= $1,200 - $24
= $1,176
July 16:
Merchandised purchased from Ryan Company for $6,600 under credit terms of 1/15, n/30 on Jul. 01
Here,
1 represent the purchase discount in percentage
15 represent the discount period in days
n/30 represent the net due period in days i.e. 30 days
And paid due balance within discount period to Ryan Company
So,
Merchandise inventory (Purchase discount) = Accounts payable-Ryan Company * purchase discount in percentage
= $6,600 * 1%
= $66
Cash = Accounts payable-Ryan Company - Merchandise inventory
= $6,600 - $66
= $6,534
July 24:
Merchandised purchased from Perez Co. for $2,500 under credit terms of 2/15, n/60 on Jul. 09
Here,
2 represent the purchase discount in percentage
15 represent the discount period in days
n/60 represent the net due period in days i.e. 60 days
And paid due balance within discount period to Perez Co.
So,
Accounts payable-Perez Co. = Merchandise purchased - Purchase return
= $2,500 - $500
= $2,000
Merchandise inventory (Purchase discount) = Accounts payable-Perez Company * purchase discount in percentage
= $2,000 * 2%
= $40
Cash = Accounts payable-Perez Company - Merchandise inventory
= $2,000 - $40
= $1,960
July 30:
Merchandise sold to Hall Co. for $1,800 under credit terms of 2/15, n/60 on Jul. 19
Here,
2 represent the sales discount in percentage
15 represent the discount period in days
n/60 represent the net due period in days i.e. 60 days
And Hall Co. paid due balance within discount period
So,
Accounts receivable-Hall Co. = Sales - Sales returns and allowances
= $1,800 - $400
= $1,400
Sales discount = Accounts receivable-Hall Co. * Sales discount in percentage
= $1,400 * 2%
= $28
Cash = Accounts receivable-Hall Co. - Sales discount
= $1,400 - $28
= $1,372
