    Entry must it make to record the collection of the note and interest at its maturity date:

    Debit Cash $42,700

    Credit Note Receivable $40,000

    Credit Note Interest receivable $1,500

    Credit Interest revenue $1,200

    Explanation:

    Young Company lends Dobson industries $40,000 on August 1, 2017, accepting a 9-month, 9% interest note.

    The amount of the interest per year = 9% x $40,000 = $3,600

    The amount of the interest per month = $3,600/12 = $300

    At December 31, 2017, the interest accrual = $300 x 5 = $1,500

    Journal entries to record the interest accrual:

    Debit Note Interest receivable $1,500

    Credit Interest revenue $1,500

    On maturity date, journal entries to record the collection:

    Debit Cash $42,700

    Credit Note Receivable $40,000

    Credit Note Interest receivable $1,500

    Credit Interest revenue $1,200
