Solution

The correct journal entry that Smart makes on February 8 is:

Account Title Debit Credit Cash 4,455 Sales discounts 45 Accounts Receivable 4,500

Here's the step-by-step explanation:

  1. The credit terms of 1/10, n/30 mean that Kennedy Company can take a 1% discount if they pay within 10 days. Otherwise, the full amount is due in 30 days.

  2. Since Kennedy pays the invoice on February 8, they take the 1% discount. 1% of 4,500is4,500 is 45.

  3. Therefore, Kennedy only pays 4,5004,500 - 45 = 4,455.ThisistheamountthatSmartCompanyreceives,sotheydebitCashfor4,455. This is the amount that Smart Company receives, so they debit Cash for 4,455.

  4. The 45discountthatKennedytookisaSalesDiscount,soSmartcreditsthisaccountfor45 discount that Kennedy took is a Sales Discount, so Smart credits this account for 45.

  5. Finally, Smart credits Accounts Receivable for the full invoice amount of $4,500, because this receivable has now been paid and needs to be removed from the books.
