Answer and Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

On April 1

Franchise $128,000

Cash $128,000

(Being the franchise obtained is recorded)

It increased the assets and decreased the assets so both the accounts are debited and credited

On December 31

Amortization expense $12,000

Franchise $12,000

(Being amortization expense is recorded)

The computation is shown below:

= $128,000 * 9 months : 12 months : 8 years

= $12,000

It increased the expenses and decreased the assets so both the accounts are debited and credited
