How to Account for Sales Returns and Allowances

This video shows how to account for Sales Returns and Allowances using journal entries. A sales return occurs when a customer returns an item to the company.

Sales Returns and Allowances are subtracted from Gross Sales on the Income Statement to obtain Net Sales.—
