    The correct entries are:

    Dr Cash $7,296

    Dr Sales discount $304

    Cr Accounts receivable $7,600

    Explanation:

    First and foremost, the terms of sales transaction states that 4% cash discount is given if payment is made within the next ten days.

    Payment made on 17th of November is within the stipulated ten days and as a result the cash discount is allowed.

    The amount to be recorded as cash as (100%-4%) * $7600 = $7296

    The balance of $304 is the sales discount allowed

    The double entries would be as below:

    Dr Cash $7,296

    Dr Sales discount $304

    Cr Accounts receivable $7,600
