Question

On June 15, Oakley Inc. sells inventory on account to Sunglass Hut (SH) for $4,500, terms 4/10, n/30. On June 20, SH returns to Oakley inventory that SH had purchased for $1,000. On June 24, SH completely fulfills its obligation to Oakley by making a cash payment. What is the amount of cash paid by SH to Oakley

Answer 1

Answer: $3360

Explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the amount of cash paid by SH to Oakley will be calculated as thus:

SH will be entitled to a discount of 4% since the payment was made within the discount period, therefore, the discount that is applicable will be:

= $4500 - $1000

= $3,500

Therefore, the amount of cash payment that is made by SH to Oakley will be:

= $3,500 - (4% × $3,500)

= $3500 - (0.04 × $3500)

= $3500 - $140

= $3360

Therefore, the amount of cash paid by SH to Oakley is $3360.
