Explanation / Answer

Hello Sir/ Mam

YOUR CORRECT ANSWER IS OPTION B : a debit to cash and a credit to capital

Owner making investment in company means that owner is introducing capital in the company.

As owner will introduce new capital in cash, both the Cash A/C and Capital A/C will increase.

As the Cash A/C has debit balance and Capital A/c has credit balance,

the correct entry will be :

Debiting Cash and Crediting Capital.

I hope this solves your doubt.
