Answer 1

SOLUTION

1. Calculation of the maturity date for each of the three notes-

	L	NBR Bank	F Bank
Date of note	19 May	8 July	28 November
Term of note (in days)	90	120	60
Maturity date	17 August	5 November	27 January

2. Calculation of interest due-

	L	NBR Bank	F Bank
Principal (a)	35,000	80,000	42,000
Annual interest rate (b)	10%	9%	8%
Term of note (in days) (c)	90	120	60
Interest expense (a*b*c/360)	875	2,400	560

3. The interest expense to be recorded in the adjusting entry at the end of 2016-

Interest to be accrued at the end of 2016 = Principal * Interest rate * Term of note/360 days

= $42,000 * 8%* [(30-28)+31] / 360

= $308

4. The interest expense to be recorded in 2017-

Interest to be recorded in 2017 = Principal * Interest rate * Term of note/360 days

= $42,000 * 8% * (60-33)/360

= $252
