    when signing the note:

    cash 22,000,000

    note payable 22,000,000

    accrued interest at december 31th, 2018

    interest expense 330,000 debit

    interest payable 330,000 credit

    payment of the note:

    payment of the note

    note payable 22,000,000

    interest payable 330,000

    interest expense 1,185,000

    cash 23,485,000

    Explanation:

    adjusting entry:

    principal x rate x time

    22,000,000

    rate 9% / 12 = 0.0075

    months 2

    We must express rate and time in the same metric, in this case, months

    22,000,000 x 0.75 x 2 = 330,000 accrued interest

    payment of the note:

    22,000,000 x 0.75 x 9 = 1,485,000

    already accrued 330,000

    interest expense 1,185,000
