Explanation:

1. For Juanita Construction, record the service on account on May 7 and the collection of cash on May 13.

Date                Details                                     Dr ($)             Cr ($)

May 7              Account receivable               4,000

                       Sales revenue                                               4,000

                       To record service provided to Michael Wolfe on account

May 13            Cash                                         4,000

                       Account receivable                                       4,000

                      To record cash collected form Michael Wolfe

2. Record cash sales with a trade discount (LO5–2)

If we assume a trade discount of 2% is given by Juanita Construction to Michael Wolfe, we will have:

Trade discount = 2% * $4,000 = $80

The accounting entries will be as follows:

Date                Details                                     Dr ($)             Cr ($)

May 7              Account receivable               3,920

                       Trade discount                            80

                       Sales revenue                                               4,000

                       To record service provided to Michael Wolfe on account

May 13            Cash                                         3,920

                       Account receivable                                       3,920

                      To record cash collected form Michael Wolfe
