    The amount of discount that will be taken is $300.4

    Explanation:

    The amount of discount that will be taken will be on the value of accounts payable that is eligible for pay after adjustments.

    The accounts receivable balance after adjusting for purchases returns and defective goods is:

    Accounts receivables eligible for payment = 18000 - 2800 - 180 = $15020

    The accounts payable amount that is eligible for discount is:

    Discount received = 15020 * 0.02 = $300.4
