Answer:

B) assets to be understated.

Explanation:

The correct journal entry should have been:

Dr Cash XX

    Cr Notes payable XX

Instead, the following entry was made:

Dr Cash XX

    Cr Notes receivable XX

Since notes receivable is an asset and it is wrongfully decreased, assets will be understated. Since notes payable is a liability and it is not recorded. liabilities will also be understated.
