Answer 1

the total amount owed to general unsecured creditors is $71,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the total amount owed to general unsecured creditors is shown below:

= Account payable + wages payable + taxes payable + interest on note payable + interest on bond payable

= $40,000 + $6,000 + $12,000 + $5,000 + $8,000

= $71,000

hence, the total amount owed to general unsecured creditors is $71,000

The same is to be considered
