Solution

The correct option is C Rs. 2,000
Journal entry needs to be recorded, for settlement with the creditor through transfer of assets when a creditor accepts an asset in full and final settlement of his account. The entry is made for cash payment only, if the creditor accepts an asset only as part payment of his/her dues. For example, a creditor to whom Rs. 10,000 was due accepts office equipment worth Rs. 8,000 and is paid Rs. 2,000 in cash, the entry is made for the payment of Rs. 2,000 only.
