a. The note issued by Valley Designs to Bork Furniture on April 10 matures on August 10. b. The maturity value of the $60,000 note is $61,200. c1. On April 10, Bork Furniture receives the note, journalizing a debit to Notes Receivable and a credit to Accounts Receivable. c2. On August 10, the maturity date, Bork Furniture records a debit to Accounts Receivable, a credit to Interest Revenue, and a credit to Notes Receivable, receiving $61,200 in total.

a. To determine the due date, add 120 days to the date of issue (April 10):


\[ \text{Due Date} = \text{April 10} + 120 \text{ days} \]

However, since we assume a 360-day year, we need to use 30 days per month:


\[ \text{Due Date} = \text{April 10} + 4 \text{ months} = \text{August 10} \]

b. To calculate the maturity value, use the formula:


\[ \text{Maturity Value} = \text{Principal} + \left( \text{Principal} * \text{Rate} * \frac{\text{Time}}{\text{360}} \right) \]\[ \text{Maturity Value} = \$60,000 + \left( \$60,000 * 0.06 * (120)/(360) \right) \]\[ \text{Maturity Value} = \$60,000 + \$1,200 \]\[ \text{Maturity Value} = \$61,200 \]

c1. Journalize the entry to record the receipt of the note by Bork Furniture:


\[ \text{April 10} \]\\\\\text{Notes Receivable} \quad 60,000 \]\text{Accounts Receivable} \quad 60,000 \]

c2. Journalize the entry to record the receipt of payment of the note at maturity:


\[ \text{August 10} \]\\\\\text{Accounts Receivable} \quad 61,200 \] \text{Interest Revenue} \quad 1,200 \] \text{Notes Receivable} \quad 60,000 \]

The complete question is:
