Quick Summary
This discussion explains how to record a purchase return in your accounting books when goods are damaged. It provides specific journal entries for the initial purchase and the subsequent return, along with the necessary ledger accounts. The explanation also briefly touches upon how to record sales returns from the supplier's perspective.

1)First entry for purchase

Purchase A/c Dr. 35000
To Chandra's Beauty products A/c Cr 35000
( purchase of beauty products)

2)second entry purchase return , assuming that you have return product of rs 5000

Chandra's Beauty products A/c Dr 5000
To Purchase return A/c Cr 5000
( Being damaged beauty products return )

create three ledgers 1) purchase A/c 2) Trade Creditors A/c 3) Purchase return A/c

-----------------------------------------
Sales returns entry in the books of supplier, who Sold product to you

Sales returns A/c Dr 5000
To Trade Debtors A/c Cr 5000
