The journal entries are as follows

1. Account receivable Dr $9,700

To Sales revenue $9,700

(Being the sale is recorded)

It is computed below:

= $10,000 - $10,000 * 3%

= $10,000 - $300

= $9,700

2. Cash Dr $9,700

To Account receivable $9,700

(Being the receipt of the payment is recorded)

3. Cash Dr $10,000

To Account receivable $9,700

To Sales discount forfeited $300

(Being the receipt of the payment is recorded)
