In an integrated accounting system, when goods costing ₹3,60,000 are sold on credit for ₹4,50,000, which pair of entries is passed?

Debit Debtors and credit Sales at ₹4,50,000, and separately debit Cost of Sales and credit Finished Goods Control at ₹3,60,000. Revenue is booked at selling price while inventory is relieved at cost, so the difference of ₹90,000 appears as profit.
