The Journal entry upon the 90 days (1/4 using 360 days a year) maturity at 5% rate should be $50,000 plus the Interest (I). Let Journal Entry upon Maturity be J Where J = Initial Signed Note + Initial Signed Note * Rate * Time Which is also written as J = Initial signed Note (1 + Rate * Time) Therefore J = 50,000 (1+5/100*1/4) = 50,625
