    10 - Your accounts are Sales Revenue and Accounts Receivable

    14 - Your accounts are Merchandise Inventory and Accounts Payable

    17 - Your accounts are Sales Revenue and Accounts Receivable

    20 - Your accounts are Cash, Sales Discount, and Accounts Receivable

    24 - Your accounts are Accounts Payable, Purchase discount and Cash

    27 - Your accounts are Notes Receivable and Accounts Receivable

    For number 20 and 24 you will have to compute the amount of the discount. The basic formula is:
    Interest = Principal * Rate * Time

    So take the amount of sale or purchase * the percentage rate(first number in the three numbers that look like this 2/10, n30) * the number of days (the second number in the three numbers that look like this 2/10, n30) / 360 days(bankers rule)

    The numbers in 2/10, n30 means this; the first number is percentage rate of the discount, the second number is the number of days in which the discount can be used or taken, the n number is the number of days the full payment must be made.
