Which of the option shows the correct recording of the trade discount received on purchases in the books of accounts?
Trade discount is deducted from the list price and recorded at net value.
The correct answer is option 4. Trade discount is not recorded in the books of accounts. It is deducted directly from the list price and recorded at the net value. This reduces the purchase price and is not reflected in the books under any separate account.
