    Hi Mr John
    Can you pls check my workings . I can’t find the answer
    Receivable ledger control account at 1 may had balance of 32.750 debit and and 1275 credit .
    During may sales of 125.000 were made on credit . Receipt from receivable amounted to 122.500 and cash discount of 550 were allowed. Refund 1300 were made to customer , closing credit balance is 2000$ . What is the closing debit balance at 31 may ?

    I know I’m wrong but I don’t know where .

    ( 32750+125.000)- (1275+122.500+550+1.300+2000 )
    Many Thanks

    Why are you attempting questions for which you do not have the answer? You should be using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers.

    You have made two mistakes:

    The entry for a refund to a customer is Cr Cash and Dr Receivables (I explain refunds in my free lectures).

    To end up with a credit balance, the $2,000 is carried forward from the debit side.
