Answer / deshvrat rai

We can write only cash discounts in our book of accounts, and it is available for our debtors and creditors only . Discount other than cash discount is trade discount. We can not write trade discount in our books. We write it by decreasing the price amount. Exp. List price of a mobile phone is Rs. 15,000/- . Seller is allowing discount of Rs. 1000/- each. Hear in the books of seller Sales a/c will be credited by Rs. 14,000/- only, and discount will not be visible in the books.
