The journal entry a company uses to record the issuance of a note for the purpose of borrowing funds for the business is:
A.debit Notes Payable; credit Cash
B.debit Cash and Interest Expense; credit Notes Payable
C.debit Accounts Payable; credit Notes Payable
D.debit Cash; credit Notes Payable|||well if they issue a note in oder to get cash...then they are getting CASH....
ANY increase of an ASSET is a debit
So cash up
Debit CASH
That Almost makes D the correct answer.
lets look at the credit. They are issuing a note payable. THAT's a liabilitiy. An increase in a liability is a credit
Ok, D again.
A is completely reversed!!!
Remember
the following
Asset Increase DEBIT
Asset decrease Credit
Liability Increase Credit
Liability decrease Debit
ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS
