c. Debit: Discount on notes payable, $41,884.
Explanation:
The journal entry is shown below:
Equipment $883,116
Discount on Notes payable $41,884 ($740,000 - $698,116)
To Notes payable $740,000
To Cash $185,000
(Being the amount paid in cash and note payable is recorded)
Working note
= Note payable amount × PVF factor at 6% for one year
= $740,000 × 0.94340
= $698,116
For recording this we debited the equipment as it increased the assets and discount is always debited while the note payable and cash is credited as it increased the liabilities and reduced the assets

Answer: Rework the phones
Explanation:
The phones have already been produced so the cost price of $70 does not matter as it is a sunk cost.
The decision the company makes between scrap and reworking will depend on which option bring in more money.
Scrap = $39
Reworking:
= Price after reworking - Cost to rework
= 146 - 82
= $64
Incremental income of reworking over scrap:
= 1,075 * (64 - 39)
= $26,875
<em>Signal makes an incremental income of $26,875 if they rework the phones so they should do that. </em>
