Question

state 2 transition to preparing a debit note and 2 transaction to preparing a credit note​

Answer 1

Answer:

A debit note or a Credit Note can be issued in 2 situations –

1: When the amount payable by buyer to seller decreases –There can be a change in the value of goods after the goods are delivered and invoice is issued by the seller. This can be due to a return of goods or due to the bad quality of the goods delivered, etc.In this case, the value of goods decreases due to which a Debit Note is issued by the purchaser to the seller.

2:When the amount payable by buyer to seller increases-When the value of invoice increases due to extra goods being delivered or the goods already delivered have been charged at an incorrect value a Debit Note is required to be issued.The Debit Note, in this case, is issued by the seller to the buyer. And the buyer as an acknowledgment to the receipt of Debit Note issues a Credit Note.The reason behind this – In the seller’s books of account the buyer will have a debit balance. When a debit note is issued the debit balance of the buyer’s account increases. It means that more amount is required to be paid by the buyer to the seller to settle his liability. Thus, credit note increases the liability for the buyer.
