Dear friend, we assume you are selling to Mr.A. on credit basis. You should add profit rs.8000/- with cost rs.40000/- and allow trade discount rs.8000/-(20% on sales) that comes about rs.40000/- balance and 8% sales tax for 40000/- comes about rs.3200/- then total is Rs.43200/-.
The JV is: DR CR
Mr.A's a/c 43200-00
Discount allowed 8000-00
Sales a/c 48000-00
8% sales tax a/c 3200-00
(Being sales made to Mr.A on credit).
I hope it is clear. If you any doubt mail to me : machenggco @ bsnl.in.
