    a. Cash 9800, 200 sales, and accounts receivable 10000.

    Explanation:

    In gross method we assume that discount will not be taken. So, first we record the sale without disscount (10000 in accounts receivable). When the discount is taken, so we record it as sales discount and record the cash received (debit in journal entry) and we credit the receivable in journal entry.
