Answer 1

$3,280 & $3,690

$3,840 & $4,320

$2,520 & 2,835

Step-by-step explanation:

All amounts should be recorded net of discounts.

List price of $4,100 and trade discounts of 20 percent and 10 percent.

$4,100 x ( 1 - 20% ) = $3,280

$4,100 x ( 1 - 10% ) = $3,690

List price of $4,800 and trade discounts of 20 percent and 10 percent.

$4,800 x ( 1 - 20% ) = $3,840

$4,800 x ( 1 - 10% ) = $4,320

List price of $3,150 and trade discounts of 20 percent and 10 percent.

$3,150 x ( 1 - 20% ) = $2,520

$3,150 x ( 1 - 10% ) = $2,835
