Willow Rentals purchased $800 of office supplies on credit.Which of the following general journal entries will Willow Rentals make to record this transaction?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Since Willow Rentals bought office supplies on credit, they would record the purchase by debiting Office Supplies and crediting Accounts Payable. Therefore, the correct journal entry is D: Debit Office Supplies,$800; credit Accounts Payable,$800. Option A is incorrect because it implies that Willow Rentals already owes money to someone, which is not the case. Option B doesn't make sense as there is no money to be received in this scenario. Option C is also incorrect as it is reversing the order; if it were a sale, we would credit Accounts Receivable, not debit it. Finally, option E doesn't apply as Willow Rentals did not pay by cash.
