Answer:

d. An asset should be debited for $1,000 in November

Step-by-step explanation:

The movement (change) between the opening and ending balance of the supplies account is dependent on two factors;level of purchases and quantity used. The equation showing the relationship is

Opening balance + purchases - quantity used = ending balance

6000 + 2000 - quantity used = 1000 (all amounts in $)

Quantity used = $7000

Considering the options

a. During November, the company used $7,000 of supplies - True

b. Supplies should be reported at $1,000 on the balance sheet - True

.c. An expense should be debited for $7,000 in November. - True

d. An asset should be debited for $1,000 in November - False

Asset would have been debited with the purchase for $2,000
