Solution

The correct journal entry for Eli Co. on November 1 would include a debit to Notes Receivable for 6,000andacredittoAccountsReceivablefor6,000 and a credit to Accounts Receivable for 6,000.

Here's the step-by-step explanation:

  1. When the customer gives Eli Co. a note, it means that the customer promises to pay Eli Co. 6,000in60days.ThisisanassetforEliCo.,soitincreasesitsNotesReceivableaccount.Inaccounting,anincreaseinanassetaccountisrecordedasadebit.Therefore,EliCo.woulddebititsNotesReceivableaccountfor6,000 in 60 days. This is an asset for Eli Co., so it increases its Notes Receivable account. In accounting, an increase in an asset account is recorded as a debit. Therefore, Eli Co. would debit its Notes Receivable account for 6,000.

  2. At the same time, the customer's overdue account of 6,000issettled.ThismeansthatEliCo.sAccountsReceivabledecreasesby6,000 is settled. This means that Eli Co.'s Accounts Receivable decreases by 6,000. In accounting, a decrease in an asset account is recorded as a credit. Therefore, Eli Co. would credit its Accounts Receivable account for $6,000.

The 6% interest on the note is not included in this journal entry because it is not due yet. The interest is recorded as revenue for Eli Co. when it is actually received, which is at the end of the 60-day period.
