Supply Club, Inc., sells a variety of paper products, office supplies, and other products used by businesses

Question:

Supply Club, Inc., sells a variety of paper products, office supplies, and other products used by businesses and individual consumers. During July 2018 it started a loyalty program through which qualifying customers can accumulate points and redeem those points for discounts on future purchases. Redemption of a loyalty point reduces the price of one dollar of future purchases by 20% (equal to 20 cents). Customers do not earn additional loyalty points for purchases on which loyalty points are redeemed. Based on past experience, Supply Club estimates a 60% probability that any point issued will be redeemed for the discount. During July 2018, the company records $135,000 of revenue and awards 125,000 loyalty points. The aggregate stand-alone selling price of the purchased products is $135,000. Eighty percent of sales were cash sales, and the remainder were credit sales.

Required:

1. Prepare Supply Club's journal entry to record July sales.

2. During August, customers redeem loyalty points on $60,000 of merchandise. Seventy-five percent of those sales were for cash, and the remainder were credit sales. Prepare Supply Club's journal entry to record those sales.
