Answer:

The amount of interest revenue that should be reported in the first year is $1,000

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know Note receivable is a type of investment on which the Noteholder receives te interest over the note amount.

Value of Note = $100,000

Rate = 6%

until 31 December only two months has been passed and the interest revenue of only 2 months will be recognized as follow

Interst Revenue = $100,000 x 6% x 2/12 = $1,000

So the interest revenue of $1,000 should be reported in the first year.
