Cevap

Promissory note
A promissory note is an unconditional written promise made by the debtor (maker) to pay a specified sum to the creditor (payee) on demand or at a fixed future date, without involving an intermediary drawee.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the nature of the financial instrument described in the scenario.
The instrument is a written promise to pay issued directly by the debtor to a supplier without requiring a third-party drawee.
Credit instruments are fundamentally distinguished by whether they represent an order to pay or a promise to pay.
2
Identify the credit instrument that fits a two-party unconditional promise to pay.
A promissory note fits this definition precisely, involving the maker (debtor) who promises payment to the payee (creditor).
Unlike bills of exchange which involve three parties (drawer, drawee, payee), a promissory note involves only two primary parties.
