  3. C
    Debit Auto-Drive Motors Account and Credit Delivery Vehicle Account; the credited account is classified as a real account
  4. D
    Debit Delivery Vehicle Account and Credit Discount Received Account; the credited account is classified as a nominal account

Cevap

Debit Delivery Vehicle Account and Credit Auto-Drive Motors Account; the credited account is classified as a personal account.
The delivery vehicle is a tangible non-current asset (real account) coming into the business, so its account must be debited. Auto-Drive Motors is a trade creditor (personal account) giving credit to the business, so its account must be credited.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the two ledger accounts involved in the credit purchase of the fixed asset.
The Delivery Vehicle Account (non-current asset) and Auto-Drive Motors Account (creditor/supplier).
Acquiring a business asset on credit increases asset value and creates an outstanding liability to the vendor.
2
Apply double-entry posting rules to each account.
Debit Delivery Vehicle Account (increase in asset) and Credit Auto-Drive Motors Account (giver of value/liability).
Real accounts receive debits for incoming assets, and personal accounts receive credits for trade creditors.
3
Classify the credited ledger account.
Auto-Drive Motors Account is a personal account.
Personal accounts represent individuals, firms, or suppliers with whom the business conducts transactions on credit.
