    Debit entry - Accounts Receivables - $2,000

    Credit entry - Sales - $2000

    Explanation:

    Due to the fact that it is a credit sale, it means that the cash would be obtained at a future date in time. Hence, until then, Mr Smythe is indebted to Able as he is a debtor. Once he pays what he owes to Able and the cash has been received, Accounts receivables would be credited with $2000 and cash would be debited with $2000.
