Explanation / Answer

Solution 8:

Note payable issued during july = Total credit of note payable - opening balance in note payable

= $30,000 - $20,000 = $10,000

Solution 9:

Note payable paid off during july = Total debit to note payable = $3,000

Solution 10:

Total purchase discount availed in july = $400

Amount of purchase on which discount availed = $400/2% = $20,000

Net purchases for July = $42,000 - $900 = $41,100

Purchases on which discount was not availed = $41,100 - $20,000 = $21,100

Total amount of purchase discount which were allowed to lapse = $21,100*2% = $422

Solution 11:

Total cash outlay for advertising in july = Debit to prepaid advertising + Advertising expense - Credit to prepaid advertising

= $1,200 + $600 - $400 = $1,400

Solution 12:

Cash used to pay salaries during the month = Debit to salaries expense - Credit to salary payable

= $9,200 - $800 = $8,400
