Answer:

The answers are:

  • Dr accounts payable 1,000
  • Cr cash 980
  • Cr merchandise inventory 20

Explanation:

Since accounts payable is a liability, when it decreases, it should be debited. Since the merchandise was paid (less debt), then the company's liabilities decrease.

Since cash is an asset, when an asset decreases, it should be credited. LOL Music Store paid its debt in cash, therefore decreasing its cash account.

Since the purchase discount reduces the value of the inventory and inventory is an asset, when an asset decreases, it should be credited.

Debit accounts payable $1000
