    Option A, total debits to the inventory account would be $37,800, is correct

    Explanation:

    In other words, the amount to be recognized in merchandise inventory account is the sum of both amounts i. e $35,000+$2800=$37,800

    This would be debited to merchandise inventory and $2,800 would be credited to the cash account while $35,000 is credited to accounts payable
