    Dr. Purchases $8,500

    Cr. Tidy $8,500

    Dr. Freight Charges $45

    Cr. Express Transfer $45

    July 5.

    Dr. Express Transfer $45

    Cr. Cash $45

    July 7.

    Dr. Purchases $11,985

    Cr. Tidy $11,985

    July 13.

    Dr. Tidy $20,485

    Cr. Cash $20,280

    Cr, Discount Income $205

    Explanation:

    Credit terms of 1/10, n/30 means there is a discount of 2% is available on payment of due amount within discount period of 10 days after sale with net credit period of 30 days.

    As the both payments are made within the discount period. So discount of 1% is availed by the Marshall.

    Discount amount = ($8,500 + $11,985) x 1% = $20,485 x 1% = $205

    Payment Made = $20,485 - $205 = $20,280
