Prepare the journal entry to record the sale using the net method, rounding to the nearest whole dollar.
Hint: In calculating your answer, use one minus the discount rate (eg. 1 - 0.03 = 0.97)
Then, prepare the journal entry assuming the payment is made within 15 days (the discount period). If required, round your answers to nearest whole dollar.
