Transactions of an income account typically include the following:
1. Revenue or sales: This includes money received from selling goods or services. These transactions increase the income account.
2. Discounts: If the company offers discounts on its products or services, these transactions decrease the income account.
3. Returns and allowances: If customers return purchased items or receive allowances for damaged goods or unsatisfactory services, these transactions decrease the income account.
4. Interest income: If the company earns interest on investments or loans, these transactions increase the income account.
5. Other income: This includes miscellaneous income sources such as rent received, royalties, or fees for services provided. These transactions increase the income account.
The above transactions affect the income account, which is a temporary account used to track the company's revenues and expenses during a specific accounting period. At the end of the period, the net income (revenue minus expenses) is transferred to the retained earnings account.
