Answer 1

Answer and Explanation:

The journal entry is shown below:

Cash Dr $8,633

To Interest revenue ($8,900 × 90 days ÷ 360 days × 12%) $267

To Notes receivable $8,900

(Being the cash is received)

For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the interest revenue as it also increased the revenue and decreased the asset so the note receivable account is credited

this is the answer but the same is not provided in the options
