    A) The balance sheet will report the note receivable of $8,400

    Explanation:

    Notes receivables and promissory notes are part of the Notes Receivables account, which is an asset account in the balance sheet. They are recorded as follows:

    Dr Notes Receivable account 8,400 Cr Accounts Receivable account 8,400

    Both accounts are asset accounts, but notes receivable is replacing accounts receivable. Therefore since notes receivable is increasing, it should be debited, and since accounts receivable is decreasing, it should be credited.

    You don't record any interest, only after the interest is paid, you should record it as interest revenue.
