The journal entries are shown below:

On March 1

Notes receivable A/c Dr $10,400

To Service revenue A/c $10,400

(Being the acceptance of the note is recorded)

On September 1

Cash A/c Dr $10,868

To Notes receivable A/c $10,400

To Interest revenue A/c $468

(Being the cash collection is recorded)

The computation of the interest revenue is shown below:

= Notes receivable * interest rate * (number of months : total number of months in a year)

= $10,400 * 9% * (6 months : 12 months)

= $468
