Answer: Dr Cost of Goods Sold 70

              Cr Merchandise Inventory 70

Explanation:

We must compute the difference between the net realizable values and the original purchase prices in order to establish the appropriate adjustment:

Product A:

net realizable value - original purchase price =665-650=15

Product B:

netrealizable value-originalpurchaseprice=505-590=-85

Now we add both differences:  

              15-85=-70

The assets have diminished in value because the number is negative.

The merchandise inventory account needs to be credited because the assets have decreased in value (when assets decrease they are credited). The COGS account should be debited because the decline in value corresponds to increased COGS (when expenses increase they are debited).
