Answer and Explanation:
The journal entries are shown below:
1. Cash Dr $2,600,000
To Note payable $2,600,000
(Being the issuance of the note is recorded)
For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the note payable as it also increased the liabilities
2. Interest expense $26,000
To interest payable $26,000
(Being the interest expense is recorded)
For recording this we debited the interest expense as it increased the expenses and credited the note payable as it also increased the liabilities
The computation is shown below:
= $2,600,000 × 6% × 2 months ÷ 12 months
= $26,000
