    Sep 30 (1 month from Sep 1 to Sep 30), accrued interest for the Pippen note is $70 (=$14,000*6%/12*1)

    Oct 31 (2 months from Sep 1 to Oct 31), accrued interest for the Pippen note is $140 (=$14,000*6%/12*2)

    Oct 31 (1 months from Oct 1 to Oct 31), accrued interest for the Prime Bank is $161 (=$22,800*9%/12*1)

    Explanation:

    Assuming the interest rate indicated is per annum

    The accrued interest = amount of note x interest rate per annum / 12 month x number of months accrued.

    For the note to Pippen issued on Sep 1, then it's 1 month at Sep 30 or 2 months at Oct 31

    For the note to Prime Bank issued on Oct 1, then it's 1 month at Oct 31
