I have a homework problem that I cannot seem to figure out because my teacher doesn't really teach us.

Jones company is a furniture retailer and uses the perpetual inventory system. On January 14 2007 jones purchased merchandise inventory at a cost of 25000. Credit terms were 2/10, n/30. The inventory was sold on account for 40000 on jan 21 2007. Credit terms were 1/10, n/30. The accounts payable was settled on jan 23, 2007, and the accounts receivables were settled on jan 30, 2007. Prepapre journal entries to record each of these transactions

PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW IM SUPPOSED TO PREPARE JOURNAL ENTRIES FOR THESE AND ALSO WHY IM SUPPOSED TO DO IT THAT WAY. Thank you:)

Merchandise inventory... debit $25,000
Accounts payable... credit$25,000
To record inventory purchase in credit terms 2/10 and n/30
Cash... d $40,000
Sales... c 40,000
To rdecord sale in terms 1,10 and n/30
Cost of goods sold... 40,000
Merchandise inventory... 40,000
To record cost of goods sold
Then after this entris to settle acounts payable you debit accounts payable and interest expense and credit cash by the same amount of the previous two and do vise versa against accounts recevables, by debiting cash and crediting interests and accounts recevables... note you9 have to calculate interest expence and interest by 1/10 and n/30 and if paid before then I think you have to give a discount for payment on time and you get a discount for paying on time

Don't even bother reading my little brother's answer, is not completely wrong but is not right. He was working on his homework and did not concentrate before answering your question.:D
