Answer:

C) a debit to Merchandise Inventory and a credit to Accounts Payable

Explanation:

The journal entry to record the purchase of inventory on account by using the perpetual inventory system is shown below:

Merchandise Inventory A/c Dr XXXXX

      To Accounts Payable A/c               XXXXX

(Being merchandise is purchase on credit)

Simply we debited the merchandise inventory account and credited the account payable account so that the correct posting can be done.
