    Aug 2 2013 Notes Receivable 6000 Dr

    Accounts Receivable 6000 Cr

    Oct 31 2013 Interest Receivable 180 Dr

    Interest Revenue 180 Cr

    Oct 31 2013 Cash 6180 Dr

    Notes Receivable 6000 Cr

    Interest Receivable 180 Cr

    Explanation:

    When the note is received, the customer account will be closed and accounts receivable will be credited while a new asset of notes receivable will be created and notes receivable is debited.

    The interest on notes receivable is calculated assuming a 360 day year and the 12% is annual interest rate.

    The interest on note is 6000 * 0.12 * 90/360 = $180

    The interest is income so wull be credited while as it is receivable, the interest receivable will be debited.

    On 31 October when the note is honored and cash is received, it will be total of principal + interest so cash = 6000 + 180 = 6180

    As a result, the assets notes and interest receivables will be closed and credited against cash.
