How do you pay and receive discount in cash it is either deducted from sale or purchase value right?
If this involves any cash movement - It should
@ Hitesh exactly my point. since there is no "cash" involved, shouldn't we deduct it from the profit considered in preparation of cash flow statement (indirect method)
So you mean you book gross sales and debit discount separately? is that what you mean
yes discount received , discount paid, sales and purchases all separate
Ha yes then discount paid is added back and discount received is deducted to arrive at cash figures

leave cash flow statement in option
for new FD's and FD matured, need not reflect in cash flow just like cash deposited into bank and cash with drawn from bank.
i.e. on one end either cash and bank balance decrease then FD Bal will increase, where as on maturity either cash Bal or bank balance will increase.
