Q2. 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 1,000 units at a price of $8 cash per unit (for a total cost of $8,000).
- May 5: Allied sold 500 of the units in inventory for $12 per unit (invoice total: $6,000) to Macy Co. under credit terms 2/10, n/60. The goods cost Allied $4,000.

- May 8: Macy discovers that 50 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 $200 to compensate for the damage.
