    Cash 60,300 debit

    discount on NP 1,620

    Note payable 61,920 credit

    interest expense 1,080 debit

    discount on Note Payable 1,080 credit

    interest expense 540 debit

    note payable 61,920 credit

    discount on Note Payable 540 credit

    cash 61,920 credit

    Explanation:

    when the note is signed:

    note nominal 61, 920

    actual cash received (60,300)

    discount on NP 1,620

    year-end adjustment:

    amortization from Nov 1st to Dec 31th: 2 months

    1,620 x 2 months / 3 months = 1,080

    at maturity:

    for the last month: 1,620 x 1 month / 3 month = 540
