    Assuming that the reporting period ended on 30 June, you basically have to reverse the entries that recorded the original sale so that it looks like it didn't happen in the first place.

    This means that you need to adjust the sales figure and cost of sales figure in the income statement, and adjust the debtors figure and inventories figure in the balance sheet.
