Tate Company purchased equipment on November 1, 2020 and gave a 3-month, 9% note with a face value of $120,000. Tate’s year-end is December 31st. The December 31, 2020 adjusting entry is Group of answer choices debit Interest Expense and credit Cash, $7,200 debit Interest Expense and credit Interest Payable, $1,800 debit Interest Expense and credit Interest Payable, $1,200 debit Interest Expense and credit Interest Payable, $10,800

Debit Interest Expense and credit Interest Payable, $1,800

Explanation:

The amount of time that has elapsed between the 1st of November and the 31st of December is 2 months.

This means that the interest over the last 2 months has to be calculated and recorded on the 31st of December.

Bear in mind that the 9% is an annual interest rate figure and so when calculating the interest, you must adjust for the amount of months in the year.

Interest owed for 2 months is,

= 9% * 2/12 (2 months have elapses out of 12 months in the year) * $120,000

= $1,800

Interest owed is $1,800.

The correct entry will therefore be,

Dec 31

DR Interest Expense $1,800

CR Interest Payable $1,800

both are integral parts of a corporate balance sheet. the cash flow statement, or statement of cash flows, measures the sources of a company's cash and its uses of cash over a specific time period. the income statement measures a company's financial performance, such as revenues, expenses, profits or losses over a specific time period (in fact, it's sometimes called a statement of financial performance).

a cash flow statement shows exactly how much money a company has received and how much it has spent, traditionally over a period of one month. it captures the current operating results and changes on the balance sheet, such as increases or decreases in accounts receivable or accounts payable, and does not include noncash accounting items such as depreciation and amortization. the cash flow generally comes from revenue received as a result of business activity, but it may be augmented by funds available as a result of credit. a cash flow statement is used to determine the short-term viability and liquidity of a company, specifically how well it is positioned to pay its bills and vendors.
