Dr merchandise inventory($34,000+$540) $34,540

Cr accounts payable $34,000

Cr cash $540

Explanation:

The cost of inventory purchased is shown as an increase in merchandise inventory since perpetual system of inventory requires that inventory is updated each time there is a receipt or sale of inventory.

In other words, the cost of inventory purchased is debited to merchandise inventory and credited to accounts payable.

The cost of freight is also added to the cost of inventory while it is credited to cash account.

The business cycle is the periodic but irregular up-and-down movement in economic activity, measured by fluctuations in real gross domestic product (gdp) and other macroeconomic variables. a business cycle is typically characterized by four phases—recession, recovery, growth, and decline—that repeat themselves over time. economists note, however, that complete business cycles vary in length. the duration of business cycles can be anywhere from about two to twelve years, with most cycles averaging six years in length. some business analysts use the business cycle model and terminology to study and explain fluctuations in business inventory and other individual elements of corporate operations. but the term "business cycle" is still primarily associated with larger (industry-wide, regional, national, or even international) business trends.
