The correct option is C.

Cash A/c Dr $300,000

To Notes Payable $300,000

(Being notes payable issued)

Explanation:

As brick company has sign a $300,000 note which consist 7% interest rate and the duration of note is 9 month on January 1

The question has asked the journal entry on January 1 date.

So, the journal entry is

Cash A/c Dr $300,000

To Notes Payable $300,000

(Being notes payable issued)

The interest part should be ignored because in the question they asked the journal entry of January 1 not in the end of the month. According to the date of asking the journal entry, the amount is to be calculated. Thus, interest should not be considered.

Hence, the correct option is C.

Cash A/c Dr $300,000

To Notes Payable $300,000

(Being notes payable issued)
