January Transactions

Included in OTPs January 1 Accounts Receivable balance is a $1,500 balance due from Jeff Letrotski. Jeff is having cash flow problems and cannot pay the $1,500 balance at this time.

Jeff signs the promissory note, which indicates the principal and all interest will be due and payable to OTP on July 1 of this year.
