Answer:
Trade discount is not recorded in the books of accounts..it is deducted from the) List price of that product at the time of Purchase itself.. That net amount is considered to be the historical price of that product and is recorded in the books of accounts.
Given List price = 20000
Trade discount=20%@20000=4000
Purchase price= 20000-4000 = 16000
Also given that Amount is recieved in the form of Cheque....
So the current transaction affects two accounts..
Purchases (nominal) account and Bank (real) account...
The Three golden rules of accounting are
Personal account - Debit the receiver credit the giver
Real account - Debit what comes in credit what goes out
Nominal account - Debit All expenses and losses credit all incomes and Gains
as Per above rules
since Purchases is an expense so should be debited, Bank amount is outgoing so should be credited..
