Answer:

C. Cost of Goods Sold - 2,500, Merchandise Inventory - 2,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The journal entry would be:

Account Debit Credit

Cost of Goods Sold $2,500

Merchandise Inventory $2,500

When a cost increases, it is debited, and when an asset, such as inventory, decreases, it is credited.
