Sales returns and allowances是只影响Net income吗?

NO.PZ2017102901000029

问题如下:

An example of a contra asset account is:

选项:

A.

depreciation expense.

B.

sales returns and allowances.

C.

allowance for doubtful accounts

解释:

C is correct.

A contra asset account is netted against (i.e., reduces) the balance of an asset account. The allowance for doubtful accounts reduces the balance of accounts receivable. Accumulated depreciation, not depreciation expense, is a contra asset account. Sales returns and allowances create a contra account that reduce sales, not an asset.

Sales returns and allowances create a contra account that reduce sales, not an asset.

这句话没有读懂,是指Sales returns and allowances是只影响Net income吗?

嗨,从没放弃的小努力你好:


Sales returns and allowances create a contra account that reduce sales, not an asset.

因为net income最终是会通过retained earnings进入equity的,所以说只影响肯定不准确,不过确实,直接影响的就是net income了。


备抵账户( contra accounts )是用来抵减被调整账户的余额以求得被调整账户实际余额的账户。涉及到的Contra account有几种类型,正好我们通过这道题可以了解。


B选项“sales returns and allowances是sales的备抵账户”,sales是损益表科目,那么说明是在损益表上。


“accumulated depreciation”是固定资产的备抵账户,是资产负债表科目。


C选项“坏账准备”则是“应收账款”的备抵账户,也是资产负债表。
