A company purchased $2,000 of merchandise on July 5 with terms 2/10, n/30. On July 7, it returned $300 worth of merchandise. On July 12, it paid the full amount due. Assuming the company uses a perpetual inventory system, and records purchases using the gross method, the correct journal entry to record the payment on July 12 is:

The correct journal entry to record the payment on July 12 is:

Debit Accounts Payable $1,700

Credit Merchandise $34

Credit Cash $1,666

Explanation:

Credit terms of 2/10, n/30 means that 2% discount for the payment within 10 days and the full amount to be paid within 30 days.

On July 5:

Debit Merchandise $2,000

Credit Accounts payable $2,000

On July 7:

Debit Accounts payable $300

Credit Merchandise $300

On July 12, the company pays and takes the appropriate discount:

2% x ($2,000 - $300) = $34

The company uses a perpetual inventory system, and records purchases using the gross method.

The journal entry to record the payment:

Debit Accounts Payable $1,700

Credit Merchandise $34

Credit Cash $1,666
