Expenses paid out of cash received | 6,000 | |
Debts written off | 8,000 | |
Refunds to credit customers | 1,000 | |
Discounts allowed | 7,000 | |
Credit sales | Sales | |
Closing accounts receivables | 120,000 |
Total Debit | Sale + 81,000 |
Total Credit | 221,000 |
Credit Sales + 81,000 -221,000 =120,000
Credit sales =120,000 + 221,000 -81,000
Credit sales = 260,000
Cash Sales | 10,000 |
Credit Sales | 260,000 |
