    Dr. Cash / Bank $3,332

    Dr. Sales returns and Allowances $600

    Dr. Discount Expense $68

    Cr. Account Receivable $4,000

    Explanation:

    Terms of sale 2/10, n/30 means there is a discount of 2% is available on payment of due amount within discount period of 10 days after sale with net credit period of 30 days.

    As per given data

    Sale = $4,000

    Sales return = $600

    Receivable = $4,000 - $600 = $3,400

    As the payment is made within discount period, so discount will be availed on the amount due

    Discount = $3,400 x 2% = $68

    Payment by Customer = $3,400 - $68 = $3,332
