B) Cash A/c Dr $18,000

To Long-Term Notes Payable $18,000

Explanation:

Since we have to pass the journal entry for the beginning year, so we have to record the issued amount also,

The journal entry is shown below:

Cash A/c Dr $18,000

To Long-Term Notes Payable $18,000

(Being long term notes payable)

The principal installment amount should not be considered in the recording of the journal entry. Hence, it is ignored.
