• A. Cash transaction
• B. Credit transaction
• C. Non-monetary transaction
• D. None of the above

Answer 1

The correct option is B Credit transaction

The term "transaction" refers to any business dealing or event which has a value measurable in terms of money and which involves transfer of money or money's worth between the business and others. The capital introduced by the proprietor, the amount withdrawn by the proprietor, purchase of goods on cash or credit, selling of goods for cash or credit, receipt of money from a debtor, payment to a creditor, borrowing of loan from bank or payment of a loan, payment of salaries, rent, telephone charges, and receipt of incomes such as discount, rent and interest are examples of transactions. A credit transaction is one in which payment or receipt of money is postponed for a future date. Here, the name of the party is mentioned (with or without the word 'credit'). Purchased furniture from Mohan on credit, sold goods to Rejeev on credit, and salary unpaid, are some examples of credit transactions.
