What should be entered in the accession register in the Price column: The Total cost of the books with discount or without discount

Actually I have a doubt regarding entering the price of the books to the accession register. What should be entered the total price of the books without discount or the total after the discount.

Any suggestion would be highly appreciated!

total cost of the book price is entered in price column of accession register
after accessioning total amount of bill will put on grand total and then less discount price of book you total price with discount will remain thatch ur payable amount put on register
we should write the total amount of book means the actual cost of book...because this information is noted to have full information about the book if in future the book would be lost so at that time we should be able to tell the cost to be paid by the person who is responsible for that.
I am following the same, But I have a doubt -during the auditing purpose, if the total amount of book purchased during a FY will not match with the amount paid by the institute, what should be clarification?
Dear Sir
In my openion, we should enter printed price (Which is mentioned on the book) to the Accession Register according to the library rules, beacuse many times The publishers/ distributors are not give any discount of valuable/ more demandable books. for the purpose of auditing, we should maintain book purchase bill records files. in which mentioned the actual cost of book which has been paid by the organisation it means total cost after discount. every library keep a copy of each Invoice/ bill of the books. some times Auditors has objection but u can satify with your clearification.

" We should suggest for the printer of Accession Register. A additional colume should be made in Accession Register for actual cost/ after discount of particular book"

Thanks
yes this is the correct
