Again, why are you attempting questions for which you do not have answers? I explain the entries for this in my free lectures on control accounts. The sale is recorded as debit receivables 640 and credit sales 640. The cash received is recorded as debit cash 608 and credit receivables 608. The cash discount is recorded as debit other expenses 32 and credit receivables 32.
