16 February 2014 Dear Sir/s,

i want to know what treatment we have to give to cash discount received on FIXED ASSET ?

i mean we have to record the cash discount as income ? , if yes then the FIXED ASSET to be recorded at total value (net payable to supplier plus cash discount), if not then which account we have to debit for cash discount received ?

16 February 2014 For example you are purchasing Fixed Asset from X. Price Rs 100, Discount @ 10% i.e., Rs 10. Net amount paid by you is Rs 90/-.

Entry Will be-

Fixed Assets A/c Dr Rs 90

To X A/c Rs 90
