From my understanding of the receivables account, a debit increases the account while a credit reduces the account.
My problem is I’m failing to understand the logic of debiting the receivables account when a returns in is made, as since the goods are being returned there should be a reduction in receivables.
Thanks in advance
If a customer returns goods then we do not debit receivables – we credit receivables as I explain in my free lectures.
