Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

This is an interest expense.

In accounting, the rule is as follows:

Debit side increases asset and expenses while credit side decreases liability, shareholders' equity and sales or revenue.

Credit side decreases asset and expenses while credit side increases liability, shareholders' equity and sales or revenue.

2 points on $400,000 means the interest charge is 2 percent on $400,000.

So we have 0.02 x $400,000

$8,000.

It will be a debit side because it is an increase in expense.
