    The correct option is A

    Explanation:

    The journal entry for the issuance of the note will be shown below:

    Cash A/c ... Dr $250,000

    Notes Payable A/c ... Cr $250,000

    When issuing the note, the cash account is debited because increase in asset is debited. So, cash is asset that is why it is debited. And notes payable is issued against the cash so, it is credited.
