    b. Overstate, understate, understate

    Explanation:

    when receiving the note value will be the 1,000 discounted at 8% for three years.

    So this sales revenue should be lower.

    On the subsequent years, the company is not doing the recognition of the accrued interest revenue so, their net income is understated as a portion of income generated during the year is not being disclosure.
