Solution

The correct answer is: Debit Merchandise Inventory 300;creditCash300; credit Cash 300.

Here's the step by step explanation:

  1. X-Mart purchased merchandise, so the inventory of the company increases. In accounting, an increase in inventory is a debit to the Merchandise Inventory account.

  2. The company paid immediately, which means the cash of the company decreases. In accounting, a decrease in cash is a credit to the Cash account.

So, the journal entry to record this transaction is: Debit Merchandise Inventory 300;creditCash300; credit Cash 300.
