Electrodo Co. purchased land for $55,000 with $20,000 paid in cash and $35,000 in notes payable. What effect does this transacti
Archy [21]

Answer:

(c). Net increase in assets of $35,000 and a net increase in liabilities of $35,000

Explanation:

Accrual basis of accounting attempts to record transactions as and when they arise and not on the basis of  when money is actually received or paid. Once a liability is certain, such a liability is provided for immediately.

The journal entry for purchase of Land partly by cash and partly for issuing a notes payable would be:

Land                                                  Dr. $55,000

     To Cash                                                          $20,000

     To Notes Payable                                           $35,000

(Being land purchased by payment of $20,000 in cash and a note being issued against the balance amount)

Land and cash are assets whereas Notes Payable is a liability.

So, the effect of the above transaction would be:

Net increase of $35,000 ( $ 55,000 - $ 20,000) as debit in fixed assets account increases their balance whereas cash being a real account, the rule being debit what comes in, credit what goes out. So credit in cash account would reduce the cash balance by $ 20,000.

Notes Payable account which is to be paid in future is a liability which shall increase the liabilities by $ 35,000.

So, the correct answer is (c), Net increase in assets of $35,000 and a net increase in liabilities of $35,000.
