The amount that will be recorded for interest expense for the first payment on January 31, 2018 is $625. Interest expense is type of return which paid by the debtor in this case, Camp Elim for its $125,000 loan for the bus. To get the amount you must calculate 6% of the loan principal and then divided by 12, which is the total month of a year.
