Explanation:
In financial statements when measuring performance increase the percentage change in various financial statement lines are usually used.
Financial statement lines are individual items on financial statements. For example current assets, current liabilities, and sales.

Sales returns reduce the sales made. Sales are put on the credit side so transactions that will reduce sales such as sales returns would have to go on the debit side.
Wages are an expense and expenses are debited to show they are increasing so they have a debit balance.
Machinery is an asset and assets have debit balances.
Discount allowed reduces the sales balance and as mentioned above, transactions that reduce sales go on the debit side so this has a debit balance as well.
