Journal entries to record payment of the notes payable on September 30, 2022:

Sept 30, 2022:

Debit Notes Payable Account (Midwest Bank) with $41,000,000

Debit Interest on Notes Payable with $3,690,000

Credit Cash Account with $44,690,000

Being payment of the notes payable and interest on maturity.

Explanation:

a) Interest on notes = $41,000,000 x 9% = $3,690,000

b) The debit to the Notes Payable account will cancel the earlier credited amount, which recorded the liability when it was first received.
