Answer:

Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

Accounts receivable A/c Dr $27,300

              To Sales A/c $27,300

(Being goods are sold on credit)

Sales return and allowance A/c Dr $3,000

              To Accounts receivable $3,000

(Being sales return is recorded)

Cash A/c Dr                   $24,057

Sales Discount A/c Dr $243

     To  Accounts receivable    $24,300

(Being cash received recorded)

The computation of the account receivable  

= Credit sales - returned goods

= $27,300 - $3,000

= $24,300

And, the discount would be

= Accounts receivable × percentage given

= $24,300 × 1%

= $243
