Answer :

Answer:

May 1 2022  Cash                         435540 Dr    

                         Notes Receivable       408000 Cr

                         Interest Revenue          12240 Cr

                        Interest Receivable        15300 Cr

Explanation:

The interest revenue for 5 months was already recorded on 31 december against an interest receivable account that has a balance of 5 months of interest due.

The interest on note for 9 month period is = 408000 * 0.09 * 9/12 = $27540

The 5 month interest recorded on 31 december is 408000 * 0.09 * 5/12 = 15300

Thus, the interest revenue to be recorded on May 1 will be 4 months interest that is 27540 - 15300 = 12240
