Answer:
(a) To record the repair to the transmission on one of its delivery vans, the resulting journal entry is:
(Dr) Repairs and Maintenance Expense, $2,300
(Cr) Cash, $2,300
The repair of the transmission is an expenditure that returns the vehicle to its previous operating condition. The repair results in an increase to Repairs and Maintenance Expense (an increase to an expense is a debit) and a decrease to Cash (a decrease to an asset is a credit).
(b) To record the installation of a GPS system in one of its delivery vans, the resulting journal entry is:
(Dr) Delivery Van, $450
(Cr) Cash, $450
The installation of the GPS system is a permanent addition to the van that has increased its capability and should be capitalized. The addition results in an increase to Delivery Van (an increase to an asset is a debit) and a decrease to Cash (a decrease to an asset is a credit).
Entrepreneurship describes the desire to be one’s own boss.
I would say accounts payable since it is a debit or it means money that has to be paid out most likely for a product or a service such as the cost of drilling at a mine say which would be taken off the budget and thus reduce the balance of the budgeted amount.
