In the course of your examination, you found out that your client acquired on July 1, 2020 three printing machines for a list price of ₱280,000 with a 10% trade discount, term 2/10, n/60. The liability was fully paid on September 1, 2020. In addition, freight charges of ₱1,040 and cost of installation of P5,000 were paid.
