Yes
Because the entry deals with both cash and bank

A contra entry occurs when one business both buys goods from, and sells goods to, one other business. Rather than making a payment for the full amount owed, and receiving a payment for the full amount due, only the difference between the two amounts actually exchanges hands; this is known as contra accounting. The contra entry is shown as follows: The first business has a debit entry in the sales ledger and a credit entry in the purchases ledger to the second business. The smaller of the two accounts (the debtor account and the creditor account of the same trader) is taken and posted to the opposite side of each respective amount, so that there is a credit entry in the sales ledger and a debit entry in the purchases ledger. (The amount posted to both accounts is actually the contra.) This will effectively close the account with the smaller amount leaving the trader either a debtor or a creditor to the other business. The amount that the trader either still owes or is owed is the larger of the accounts minus the smaller transferred amount. It can happen, in very rare cases, that a contra closes both the credit and the debit account if both the amount owed and the amount owing are exactly the same size.
There is no journal entry for forecasting sales rather journal entry is made for actual sales when they occur.

A sales discount account is a contra-revenue account.
Sales Returns and Allowances is a contra income account.
That is correct. Sales and returns allowances is what is called a "Contra" account because it exists to reduce the net balance of an account. Sales is a credit account, so you debit sales returns and allowances in order to reduce your net sales.
Its a contra settlement. for sales ledger control a/c ...we put contra settlement in the Cr side and in purchases ledger control a/c ..we put contra settlement in the Dr side
Sales discount is subtracted from gross sales in arriving at net sales. It is a contra revenue account, so it is ALWAYS debit.
Sales discount account has debit balance as it causes the reduction of sales and hence a contra account of sales revenue account.
The U.S. governments illegal arms sales to Iran.
The profits from the arms sales were used to fund the Nicaraguan Contra Rebels.
