On 3rd May, 20XX Ajay sold goods for Rs.43,500 to Sunil. He made 50% of the payment immediately on which he was allowed a discount of 2%. For the balance Sunil drew a promissory note in favour of Ajay to be payable after 2 months. Since the date of the maturity of the bill was a Sunday, Ajay presented the bill as per the provisions of Negotiable Instruments Act. The bill was duly met by Sunil. Journalise the following transactions in the books of both the parties and state the date on which the bill was presented by Ajay.
