Purchases / Inventory $11,000

Promissory Note Payable $11,000

Explanation:

Promissory note is a signed document which contains a written promise for payment of stated amount to specific person or bond holder on demand or specified date.

In this case the purchases are made and a promissory note of $11,000 is signed for 45 days at 8% annual rate.

This entry will be recorded as the purchases or Inventory are debited and as promissory note is a short term liability so, promissory note payable is credited resulting increase in inventory as well increase in current liability.
