WN 1: Calculation of amount of goods sold.
Cost = 10,000
Less: Trade Discount (10% on 10,000) = 1,000
  = $\overline{9,000}$
Less: Cash Discount (3% on 9,000) = 270
Sale Price = $\overline{8,730}$
WN 2: Calculation of amount of bad debts.
25 Paise per rupee received from Naresh = 10,000
$\therefore$ 75 paise per rupee not received from Naresh $=\frac{10,000}{25}\times75=30,000$
Total amount due from Naresh = ₹ 40,000 (10,000 + 30,000)
