    From my understanding a purchase discount is always a contra-expense account to the Cost of Goods Sold.

    vodrldnr – instead of creating a new topic for each question that pops up for FAR – please post in the FAR study group.

    New topics are more for discussions vs random questions about topics – which is more for the study group.

    Imagine if everyone posted a quick question about every topic they came across – the forum would be unreadable.

    Also – please capitalize the first letter of your post titles.

    It messes with my OCD and I'm tempted to fix it each time. 🙂

    Thank you
