Sales on account and credit card sales LO1 LO3

Archer Co. allows select customers to make purchases on credit. Its other customers can use either of two

credit cards: Commerce Bank or Aztec. Commerce Bank deducts a 3% service charge for sales on its

credit card and immediately credits the bank account of Archer when credit card receipts are deposited.

Archer deposits the Commerce Bank credit card receipts each business day. When customers use the Aztec

card, Archer accumulates the receipts for several days and then submits them to Aztec for payment. Aztec

deducts a 2% service charge and usually pays within one week of being billed. Archer completed the following

transactions in August (terms of all credit sales are 2/10, n/30; and all sales are recorded at the

gross price).
