The journal entries are shown below:

1. Notes receivable A/c Dr

To service revenue A/c

(Being the acceptance of the notes receivable recorded)

2. Cash A/c Dr $10,920

To notes receivable A/c $10,500

To Interest revenue A/c $420

(Being cash collection is recorded)

The interest revenue is computed below:

= Notes receivable * interest rate * (number of months : total number of months in a year)

= $10,500 * 8% * (6 months : 12 months)

= $420

The 6 month is calculated from the March 1 to September 1
