    The journal entries are shown below:

    1. On July 15

    Accounts receivable A/c Dr $50,000 (1,000 tires * $50)

    To Sales revenue A/c $50,000

    (Being service provided is recorded)

    On July 23

    Cash A/c Dr $49,000

    Sales Discount A/c Dr $1,000

    To Accounts receivable $50,000

    (Being cash received recorded)

    The discount would be

    = Accounts receivable * percentage given

    = $50,000 * 2%

    = $1,000

    The remaining amount would be credited to the cash account.

    2. On July 15

    Accounts receivable A/c Dr $50,000 (1,000 tires * $50)

    To Sales revenue A/c $50,000

    (Being service provided is recorded)

    On August 15

    Cash A/c Dr $50,000
