Company sells mobile for 100 and profit margin is 50. The customer returns it back for exchange and buys a mobile worth 200 where the profit margin is 100. Customer mobile after usage is valued at 30. So the profit is now 30. If the company has only two mobiles made and sold, the entries will be
Dr. Inventory 400
Cr. Income statement 400
After exchange
Dr. Inventory 230
Cr. Income statement 230.
Then to assess the profitablity
Dr. Exchange loss 170
Cr. Receivablez 170
For cash sales
Dr. Exchange loss/ salez 170
Cr. Bank. 170 bank because you spent money from bank on productuion.
Sale can be recorded as
Dr. Inventory 30
Cr. Sales 30
Because sales is recorded at net of taxes and discounts.
I hope i got it right.

I hope i got it right. But what happened to the profit margin? Thats because we sell inventory at cost for profit and sales will be impacted but no impact on tax losses. Now im ready for opprobrium.
