employees until Year 2. If Costello Company uses the accrual-basis of accounting, then
it will report ✅revenue of 14,000 and expense of 6,000 in year 1

invoice date. Which of the following is part of the journal entry the company records
when it pays the shipping charge? ✅a debit to inventory for $200
