The correct answer is that this payment will have no effect on the accounting equation.

The accounting equation is Assets=Liabilities + Owner's Equity. The journal entry for this transaction will be a debit to Cash and a credit to Accounts Receivable for $1,000. Since both of these accounts are Assets there will be no change to the asset balance.
