Services rendered on June 20 and the payment is received on June 25. Here Person P make payment on its 5th day from the date of service received. Hence, Person P is eligible to get a sales discount of 2%. Thereby, Company DRS must have received its receivables after deducting the sales discount of 2%. This transaction increases cash, sales discount and decreases accounts receivable. Increase in cash (asset account) is debited, increase in sales discount (decrease in stockholders’ equity account) is debited, and a decrease in accounts receivable (asset account) is credited.
