Accounting

Required information (The following information applies to the questions displayed below.) Allied Merchandisers was organized on May 1. Macy Co. is a major customer (buyer) of Allied (seller) products.

May 3 Allied made its first and only purchase of inventory for the period on May 3 for 3,000 units at a price of $7 cash per unit (for a total cost of $21,000).

5 Allied sold 1,500 of the units in inventory for $11 per unit (invoice total: $16,500) to Macy Co. under credit terms 2/10, n/60. The goods cost Allied $10,500.

7 Macy returns 150 units because they did not fit the customer's needs (invoice amount: $1,650). Allied restores the units, which cost $1,050, to its inventory.

8 Macy discovers that 150 units are scuffed but are still of use and, therefore, keeps the units. Allied gives a price reduction (allowance) and credits Macy's accounts receivable for $450 to compensate for the damage.

15 Allied receives payment from Macy for the amount owed on the May 5 purchase; payment is net of returns, allowances, and any cash discount.
