    redit Card Sales:

    Gross Sales = $10,300

    Credit Card Discount = 2%*$10,300

    Credit Card Discount = $206

    Net Credit Card Sales = Gross Sales - Credit Card Discount

    Net Credit Card Sales = $10,300 - $206

    Net Credit Card Sales = $10,094

    Sales on Account:

    Gross Credit Sales = $10,600

    Credit Sales Return = $200

    Half of remaining sales were paid within the discount period.

    Credit Sales Discount = $10,400*50%*2%

    Credit Sales Discount = $104

    Net Credit Sales = Gross Credit Sales - Credit Sales Return - Credit Sales Discount

    Net Credit Sales = $10,600 - $200 - $104

    Net Credit Sales = $10,296

    Total Net Sales = $10,094 + $10,296

    Total Net Sales = $20,390

    So, Net Sales of $20,390.00 will be reported in income statement.
