agree  Joyce A: Sales Returns and Allowances (with an "s" after the word Return). This is a standard heading in accounting for price reductions to customers because of goods returned and for defective merchandise.

Total amount of sales discounts and returns


Explanation:
売り上げ値引き: Discounts on sales price due to defective goods or bargains.
売り上げ戻り: Product returns due to damaged goods, wrong deliveries, etc.
高: Total outstanding amount of an account.

So, this would be "The total amount of sales discounts and returns" or possibly just "Sales discounts and returns" might be OK.
