A contra revenue account is an account that offsets a company's revenue accounts, reducing the total revenue reported on the income statement. Common examples include sales returns, allowances, and discounts, which represent reductions in gross sales. By using contra revenue accounts, businesses can provide a clearer picture of their net revenue after accounting for returns and discounts. This helps stakeholders better understand the actual earnings generated from sales activities.
