Correct Answer: Both, Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A)


Solution : Both, Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are correct and Reason (R) is the correct explanation of Assertion (A) Because Similar to selling on credit, purchasing merchandise on credit has no impact on your cash flow. Your cash on hand decreases when you pay the bill for the purchase, which you record as a cash outflow. Receiving payment for sales later allows the business to reinvest money.

Hence the correct answer is option 2.
