Question:

Wilson Chan has just taken over a business started by his aunt in Sarnia, Ontario, and moved the company to Regina, Saskatchewan. The company is called Chan's Imported Technology (CIT for short) and has all new customers in the Regina region. CIT specializes in the sale of three types of advanced electronic devices: cell phones (CP), tablet computers (TC), and portable music players (MP). Wilson wants to keep track of each type of sale in total for each month of operations. Wilson employs two salespersons to oversee relations with their customers, and also wants to know the total of sales by salesperson each month. CIT's normal terms are 2% 10 days, net 30 days, but a couple of customers have been granted special terms of 3% 15 days, net 45 days. Here are the sales and sales related transactions for CIT during their first month of operations in August 2016:
