There's not enough info. You're saying a cash sale with a discount? If it's a cash sale, then it's not a discount for paying on account early. Meaning it sounds like some kind of sale or special offer or something like that. You might not need to record that type of thing at all, but rather just record the sale itself for less.
But if you want to record the discount, it's the cash that balances that. You would get cash of 950. Both the cash and discount would be debits and the credit is sales.
By the way, it's not called "cash sales." The name of the account is just Sales. Account names are not descriptions of what happened.
