Tolu purchased a machine for #6,000 on credit. The effect is to debit.. supplier
and credit the account of the
-
machinery
- creditor
- cash
- debtor
The correct answer is: A
Explanation
When Tolu purchases a machine on credit, the accounting entries reflect the following:
Debit: Machinery (#6,000)
Credit: Supplier (#6,000)
Here's why:
Debit: A debit increases an asset account. In this case, "Machinery" is an asset account that represents the new equipment Tolu acquired.
Credit: A credit increases a liability account. Since Tolu purchases the machine on credit, they now owe money
to the supplier. The "Supplier" account is a liability account that reflects this debt.
