Ask EduPadi AI for a detailed answer
Correct Option: A
Accounting and journal entry for credit sales include 2 accounts, debtor and sales. In case of a journal entry for cash sales, cash account and sales account are used. The person who owes the money is called a “debtor” and the amount owed is a current asset for the company. Since the goods were sold on credit, debtor acount will be debited (increase in the amount of money being owed to the business), and sales account will be credited.
