Accounting Help for discounted books?

If we discount out a receivable book over time and are writing portions of that book out, does this still impact the asset account?

depends upon how the receivable is recorded to start with. Is it recorded at the discount rate?

It was recorded at that discounted rate, we debit the contra asset account over time.
