    Good Day John
    I have a question:

    The bookkeeper of Peri made the following mistakes
    Sales returns of $384 were credited to the purchases returns account
    Purchases returns of $296 were debited to the sales returns account
    Which one of the following journal entries will correct the errors?
    The correct answer is:

    Dr Sales returns 88
    Dr Purchase returns 88
    Cr suspense account 176

    Could you please explain why this is the case, sir?
    Thank you a lot
