Yes, returns inwards affect the debtors control account in the general ledger. When goods are returned by customers, it results in a reduction of accounts receivable, which is reflected in the debtors control account. This decrease is typically recorded as a debit entry to the returns inwards account and a corresponding credit entry to the debtors control account, thereby adjusting the total amount owed by customers.

Yes, the sales ledger control account and the debtors control account are essentially the same. Both terms refer to an account that summarizes all transactions related to credit sales and outstanding amounts owed by customers. This account serves to reconcile the total receivables recorded in the sales ledger with the general ledger, ensuring accuracy in financial reporting.

Debtors control is not a liability; rather, it is an asset account that represents amounts owed to a business by its customers for goods or services provided on credit. It reflects the total receivables the company expects to collect in the future. Liabilities, on the other hand, are obligations the company has to pay to others, such as loans or accounts payable. Therefore, debtors control is classified as an asset on the balance sheet.
