Answer Posted / aditya poddar

Last 4 entries for the transactions in above answer needs
some corrections. Though they are very minor ones.

They are as under:
22.)
Discount Allowed A/c Dr. Rs. 90
To Babu A/c Rs. 90
(Discount is not given in cash)
(Even if it is cash discount or trade discount it is
deducted from the bill amount or payment amount and not
paid/received in cash.)

23. Similar to the above reply discount will not be
received in cash.
Santosh A/c Dr. Rs. 150
To Discount Recieved A/c Rs. 150

24.
Bank Charges A/c Dr. Rs.30
To Bank A/c Rs. 30
(Since bank charges would be debited from your bank account
and not paid in cash.)

25.
Machinery A/c Dr. Rs. 100
To Railway Freight A/c Rs. 100
(Since the cost incurred on fixed asset to bring it to
ready to use condition is supposed to be capitalised. And
machinery is a Capital Asset, thus the freight charges will
be added to cost of machinery.)

Railway Freight A/c Dr. Rs. 100
To Cash A/c Rs. 100
