Purchase ledger opening balance N4,000
sales ledger opening balance N6,000
credit purchase N25,000
Discounts allowed N1,000
Returns inwards N2,000
Credit sales during the year N10,000
Return outwards N6,000

 

A. N13,000
B. N10,000
C. N 6,000
D. N3,000

Correct Answer:

Option A – N13,000

Explanation

The Sales Ledger is your record of sales, and whether or not you have received the money, and how much you are still owed. From the table above, it is derived as;

sales opening balance – discount allowed – returns inwards + credit sales. 6,000 – 1,000 – 2,000 = 3,000 + 10,000 = 13,000
