Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

a. Accounts receivable A/c Dr $45,000

         To Sales revenue A/c $45,000

(Being merchandise sold on credit)

Cost of goods sold A/c Dr $30,000

    To Merchandise inventory A/c $30,000

(Being merchandise sold on cost)

b.  Sales return and allowance A/c Dr $4,000

               To Accounts receivable  $4,000

(Being sales return is recorded)

Merchandise inventory A/c Dr  $2,400

           To Cost of goods sold A/c  $2,400

c. Cash A/c Dr                 $40,590

   Sales Discount A/c Dr $410

     To  Accounts receivable    $41,000

The computation of the account receivable  

= Credit sales - returned goods

= $45,000 - $4,000
