Cevap

Credit note matches with source document for the Sales Returns Journal; duplicate invoice matches with source document for the Sales Journal; monthly total of the Sales Day Book matches with credited to the Sales Account in the General Ledger; monthly total of the Returns Inward Day Book matches with debited to the Sales Returns Account in the General Ledger.
The accounting entries and source documents are properly paired based on standard double-entry bookkeeping rules: credit notes document returns inward, sales invoices document credit sales, the Sales Day Book total increases revenue via a credit to the Sales Account, and the Returns Inward Day Book total reduces revenue via a debit to the Sales Returns Account.
