Answer: Check attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

Apr. 17:

Account payable:

= $6500 - $900

= $5600

Merchandise Inventory

= $5600 × 2%

= $5600 × 0.02

= $112

Cash = $5600 - $112

= $5488

Apr. 28:

Account payable:

= $12300 - $500

= $11800

Merchandise inventory

= $11800 × 1%

= $11800 × 0.01

= $118

Cash = $11682
