    Debit Credit

    1) Note Receivable 15000

    Account Receivable 15000

    2) Accrued Interest 900

    Interest Revenue 900

    3) Cash 1200

    Accrued Interest 900

    Interest Revenue 300

    4) Cash 15000

    Note Receivable 15000

    Explanation:

    Dec 31 Accrued interest will be calculated by dividing the total interest payment of the year by 12 and multiplying it by 8 as May 1 - Dec 31 is 8 months

    So 0.09 * 15000/8/12=900

    May 2017 Interest payment recorded by calculating the total interest payment (15000*0.09) = 1200 (cash debited)

    And Accrued interest from previous year and this years interest revenue (4/12*1200) will be credit

    15000 note receivable credited and 15000 cash debited for the principal repayment.
