Explanation of Solution
Contract:
Contract is an agreement among two parties or more parties which includes enforceable obligations and rights. A contract can be written, oral or implied by ordinary business practices.
Journal entry is a set of economic events which can be measured in monetary terms. These are recorded chronologically and systematically.
Accounting rules for Journal entries:
- To record increase balance of account: Debit assets, expenses, losses and credit liabilities, capital, revenue and gains.
- To record decrease balance of account: Credit assets, expenses, losses and debit liabilities, capital, revenue and gains.
Prepare journal entry for the first quarter:
Date | Account title and explanation | Debit ($) | Credit ($) |
Cash (1) | 40,000 | ||
Sales revenue (2) | 36,000 | ||
Return liability (3) | 4,000 | ||
(To record the recognition of liability) |
Table (1)
- Cash is an asset and it is increased. Therefore, debit cash account by $40,000.
- Sales revenue is a component of
stockholders’ equity and it is increased. Therefore, credit sales revenue account by $36,000. - Return liability is increased. Therefore, credit returns liability account by $4,000.
Prepare journal entry for the second quarter:
Date | Account title and explanation | Debit ($) | Credit ($) |
Cash (Balancing figure) | 36,500 | ||
Refund liability (3) | 4,000 | ||
Sales revenue (4) | 40,500 | ||
(To record the payment of refund) |
Table (2)
- Cash is an asset and it is increased. Therefore, debit cash account by $36,500.
- Refund liability is decreased. Therefore, debit returns liability account by $4,000.
- Sales revenue is a component of stockholders’ equity and it is increased. Therefore, credit sales revenue account by $40,500.

If Entity B purchases more than 800 units of Product A in a 12-month period, Contract X specifies that the price will be reduced to $390 per unit. Entity B agreed to settle all outstanding amounts of Contract X in July 2023 after both Entities agreed on the total units of sales on 30 June 2023. For the quarter that ended 30 September 2022, Entity A sold 216 units of Product A to Entity B. At that date, Entity A concluded that Entity B's purchases would not exceed the 800 units threshold required for the volume discount. In October 2022, Entity B acquired another production unit which increased the demand for Product A from Entity A. On 30 November 2022, Entity B ordered an additional 581 units of Product A from Entity A. In light of this, Entity A concluded that the customer's purchases are now highly likely to exceed the 800 units threshold in the 12 months to 30 June 2023.…arrow_forwardOn 1 January 2020, Entity A sold 100 units of Product X to Entity B for $220 per unit payable on 31 December 2020.
