The answer to this question is <span>assets decrease; stockholders' equity decreases 

The journal for this transaction would be

Debit:  Rent expense       xxxxx
Credit:         Cash                                xxxx
 
 Since cash is considered an asset, it will decrease asset if it placed on credit.
 Since expense will reduce net income that will be allocated to stockholders' equity, it will reduce stockholders' equity when placed on debit     </span>

MissTica

Answer:

11.86%

7.13%

19.95%

8.97%

Explanation:

interest rate = \frac{future value}{present value}}^{\frac{1}{n} }  - 1

(317/181)^ (1/5) - 1 = 11.86%

1080/335)^(1/17) - 1 = .13%

(185,382/48,000)^(1/13) - 1 = 19.95%

(531,618 / 40,353)^(1/30) - 1 = 8.97%
