Solution of Question No 27 Chapter No 8: –
To solve this question first you have to understand the difference between the following points
- Full Settlement vs on his account
- Discount allowed vs Bad debts
Full Settlement vs on his account
The full settlement means when one business offers a cash discount to another business on making payment earlier. It means, in this type of transactions, there will exist some amount of cash discount.
“On his account” means, when one business makes the partial payment of their own total outstanding amount, then this amount was deducted from his account. In this type of transaction, there will not be any amount of cash discount offered by the receiver business because he did not give any offer.
Discount allowed vs Bad debts
Full settlement or discount allowed are same thing
Bad debts mean when the business has received less than the total outstanding amount without offering any discount. This less amount will be treated as bad debts.
