The amount that will be reported on the income statement as net sales can be computed as follows:

Particulars                                             Amount ($)        

Sales revenue $(8600 + 10400)          $19000

Less: Credit card discounts

( contra - revenue)   $(8600 × 3%)         258

Sales discounts

( contra - revenue)

[(10400 - 500)× 1/2 × 0.01 ]                     49.50

Sales return and allowances

( contra - revenue )                                    500            

The net sale                                                                          

(reported on the income statement) =  $18192.50
