Initially when sales or return outward takes place. The journal entries will be cash/ debtor account debit TO sales/ return outward account. Now while finalizing the Books of accounts all the nominal accounts should be closed and transferred to trading and p&l. Hence sale/ return outward which normally hold a credit balance is closed by debiting the sales/ return outward account and crediting the p&l account
