Explanation:
Notes Payable refer to the formalization of business transactions done on account with notes. Â This enables the creditor to enforce legal claims and receive agreed interest.
It reduces the risk of credit default for goods purchased on credit. Â In addition, the recipient is entitled to agreed interest which accrues thereon.
It eliminates Accounts Payable when a note is drawn and transfers the amount due to the Notes Payable. Â It is also a means of extending the credit period beyond the normal trade terms.
