Sold goods to Ram Rs. 2,00,000 at a trade discount of 20% and cash discount of 3%. Only 60% amount received in cash.
Answers
Calculation of Trade discount :-
Price of goods = Rs. 2,00,000
Trade discount = 20% of Rs. 2,00,000
Trade discount = 20/100 × Rs. 2,00,000
Trade discount = Rs. 40,000
New price = Price - Trade discount
New price = Rs. 2,00,000 - Rs. 40,000
New price = Rs. 1,60,000
Calculation of cash discount :-
[ Cash discount is only allowed in cash payment ]
Given that only 60% amount is received in cash .
Cash discount is allowed on = 60% of Rs. 1,60,000
Cash discount is allowed on = 60/100 × Rs. 1,60,000
Cash discount is allowed on = 6 × Rs. 16,000
Cash discount is allowed on = Rs. 96,000
Cash discount= 3% of Rs. 96,000
Cash discount = 3/100 × Rs. 96,000
Cash discount = 3 × Rs. 960
Cash discount = Rs. 2,880
Cash received from Ram = Rs. 96,000 - 2,880
Cash received from Ram = Rs. 93,120
Cash receivable from Ram = 1,60,000 - 96,000
Cash receivable from Ram = 64,000
