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.
