Answer:

D. Deflation

Explanation:

"Consumer Price Index" (CPI) measures the changes in the weighted average of prices of a market basket (consisting of consumer goods and services). It tells the cost of living for every consumer.

"Inflation" refers to the sustained increase of prices of goods and services while "deflation" refers to the sustained decrease of prices of goods and services.

In the situation above, the CPI is considered lower than before, thus deflation must have occurred during the second six-year period. It shows a negative inflation rate.

(ii) Merchandise Inventory A/c Dr. $200

To Cost of Goods sold $200

(To record the merchandise returned)

Note:

(1) At the time of sale, the cash would have been debited with the amount of $900 and the sales revenue would have been credited with the amount of $900. Now, the cash of $900 should be credited as it was debited earlier.

(2) The inventory account also credited at the time sale, so it should be debited and the cost of goods sold debited at the time of original sale, so it need to be credited.
