Answer:

Cash                                  135,604 debit

Due from factor account:      7,735 debit

Loss on Factoring                18,081 debit

        Recourse Liability                    6,720 credit

        Accounts Receivable          154,700 credit

--to record sales of account receivables--

Explanation:

fee: 154,700 x 3% = 4,641

retention: 154,700 x 5% = 7,735

recourse: 6,720

The company will receive cash for the difference between his account receivable and the discount above:

154,700 - 4,641 - 7,735 - 6,720 = 135.604‬

We post the retention as an assets as latter we will recove this amount.

Then, the recourse as a liaiblity. Write-off the receivables and later, the cash receipts.

The difference will be considered a loss.
