    The journal entries are shown below:

    Accounts receivable A/c Dr $27,300

    To Sales A/c $27,300

    (Being goods are sold on credit)

    Sales return and allowance A/c Dr $3,000

    To Accounts receivable $3,000

    (Being sales return is recorded)

    Cash A/c Dr $24,057

    Sales Discount A/c Dr $243

    To Accounts receivable $24,300

    (Being cash received recorded)

    The computation of the account receivable

    = Credit sales - returned goods

    = $27,300 - $3,000

    = $24,300

    And, the discount would be

    = Accounts receivable * percentage given

    = $24,300 * 1%

    = $243

    The remaining amount would be credited to the cash account.
