    The journal entries should be as follows:

    Day 1, you purchase the materials (8 pallets x $200 x 80%)

    Dr Materials Inventory account 1,280 Cr Accounts Payable account 1,280

    Day 31, you pay the first installment ( = $1,280 / 3)

    Dr Accounts Payable account 426.67 Cr Cash account 426.67

    Day 61, you pay the second installment ( = $853.33 - $426.66)

    Dr Accounts Payable account 426.67 Cr Cash account 426.67

    Day 91, you pay the third installment

    Dr Accounts Payable account 426.66 Cr Cash account 426.66
