Explanation:

We reduct from the balance of the account the returrned goods:

1,500 - 200 = 1,300 then we calcualte the discount of 2 = 26

net cash outlay: 1,300 - 26 = 1,274

The freight are part of the necessary cost to acquire the goods so it increase the inventory valuation

as the returned goods are still in good conditions we can returned to our nventory and decrease thecost of good sold associate with the sale.
