note receivables 10,700 debit

fees earned 10,700 credit

--to recortd acceptance of promissory note forlegal services--

cash 11,235 debit

interest revenue 535 credit

note receivable 10,700 credit

--to record collection of the note--

Explanation:

acceptance: we will declare the revenue and create the note receivable

then, on September 1st we calculate the interest and recognize the revenue for them:

principal x rate x time = interest

10,700 x 10% x 6 month = 10,700 x 0.1 x 0.5 = 535 dollars

We will recieve in cash principal plus interest

and write-off the receivables.
