10)
a) $460

b) $500

c) $490

d) $540

The amount of the purchase discount that would be available to the company is A) $460

Explanation:

The terms of 2/10, n/30 means 2% discount for the payment within 10 days and the full amount to be paid within 30 days.

The company  purchased inventory worth $25,000 and $2,000 of the inventory was returned 2 days later.

The amount of the payable = $25,000 -  $2,000 = $23,000

The company paid within 10 days, early enough to receive discount.

The amount of the purchase discount = $23,000 x 2% = $460

its kinda hard to answer this when we dont have all the information that we need.
