18 October 2012 When the purchaser returns the goods to the seller the Purchaser sends a Debit Note to the seller (ie. the purchaser debits the seller in his books ie. Purchasers Books) and the Seller sends a Credit Note to the purchaser (ie. the seller credits the Purchaser in his Books ie. Sellers Books).





Following are the JVs to be passed:-

Sales Return inward A/c Dr.

To Debtor A/c

(Being goods returned by the customer)





Creditor A/c Dr.

To Goods Return A/c

(Being goods sent back to the seller)
