Sales Book is a book of original entry where all the sales transactions of a business are recorded. The source document or voucher used for recording entries in Sales Book is an Invoice sent out.
Explanation:
An invoice sent out is a source document or voucher that is used as evidence of a sale made by a business. It contains details of the products or services sold, their quantities, unit prices, and the total amount payable by the customer. When a business sends out an invoice to a customer, it records the transaction in the Sales Book as a credit sale.
Credit notes sent out and Debit notes received are not the source documents for recording entries in the Sales Book as they relate to adjustments made to previous sales transactions. Credit notes are issued when a business has to give a refund or when the customer returns goods, and Debit notes are issued when the business has to charge the customer for additional goods or services.
Invoice received is also not the source document for recording entries in the Sales Book as it relates to purchases made by the business, not sales made by the business.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B, Invoice sent out, which is the source document for recording entries in the Sales Book.
