Q 8.2: On June 15th, Buehler Company sells merchandise on account to Chaz Co. for $1,000, terms 2/10, n/30. On June 20th, Chaz Co. returns merchandise worth $300 to Buehler Company. On June 24th, payment is received from Chaz Co. for the balance due. What is the amount of cash received? A : $680 B : $780 C : $686 D : $700

Answer 1

Answer:

C : $686

Explanation:

The computation of the cash received amount is shown below:

= (Sale value of merchandise - returned merchandise) × (100 - discount rate)

= ($1,000 - $300) × (100 - 2%)

= $700 × 98%

= $686

Since the payment is made within 30 days, so the company could avail the discount of 2% and the return goods should be deducted so that the actual amount of cash received can come.
