B) The balance sheet will report the note receivable of $8,400 and interest receivable of $700.

Explanation:

The note receivable is an asset account that should be included in the balance sheet at face value, $8,400.

Since 8 months have passed since the note was made, we can include the interest receivable in the balance sheet, but only the 10 months: $8,400 x (10/12) x 10% = $700
