Answer:

Inventory  6000 debit

Accounts Payable  6000 credit

--to record purchase--  

Accounts Payable  250 debit

Inventory         250 credit

--to record returned goods--  

Accounts Payable  5750 debit

Inventory            115 credit

Cash                5635 credit

--to record payment within discount--  

Explanation:

We debit the inventory purchases and credit the debt we take

we purchase 600 at $10  each thus, 600 x 10 = $6,000 total purchased

Then, we return 25 untis Hence 25 x $10 = $250 credit received

Last, we detemrinate the net amount due considering we pay within discount date:

6000 - 250 = 5750 account payable balance

5750 x 2% = 115 discount received

5750 - 115 = 5635 cash outlay
