Answer:

D. May 9

Explanation:

In cash-basis accounting, revenues are recognized only when cash is paid to the company, and expenses are recognized only when the company pays cash to cover them.

In this case, the office supplies were purchased on May 1, but Jasper Corp only paid the cash on May 9, therefore, this is the date to register the transaction.
