There will be no account debited here as per my understanding of AS2.
As you have lost goods in transit, if you have booked a sale already you would have to prepare a credit note where you will have debit the sales account and credit the party to whom you had booked a sale.
If you had not booked a sale then you will pass no entry.
Stock of your org will reduce by the extent you have lost and hence, automatically when you are valuing your inventory the loss will have its effect

if any sale of goods lost in transit, please check the below points.
1. Transport insurance.
2. any Agreement with Transporter for loss/damage of goods.
3. If insurance made by company, get certificate of fact from the transporter to claim insurance.
4. if insurance made by transporter then debit the transporter and give credit to the purchaser.
5. the sale made have the inpact of stock status. cannot be changed. for the purpose of loss in transit.
6. if all above is not applicable then pass a credit note and give credit to the party.
