Answer:

B) Cash 18,000

Long-Term Notes Payable 18,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The only records that Lewis Services should make on March 1 regarding the issuing of the long term notes payable are:

  • Dr Cash 18,000 (since Cash is an asset account, when it increases it should be debited)
  • Cr Long Term Notes Payable 18,000 (since Long Term Notes Payable is an liability account, when it increases it should be credited)
