frez [133]

Answer:

a. Journal entry to record the issue of notes

Date           Account Title & Explanation   Debit $        Credit $

Jan 1          Cash                                           350,000

                 Notes Payable                                                350,000

                  (To record the issue of notes payable)

b. Calculation of Interest Expenses

                      Particulars                           Amount $

Beginning balance of loan payment         350,000

Annual interest rate                                          4%

Interest expenses                                         14,000

Hence the interest expenses = $14,000

Principal amount is calculated as the difference between the annual payment and the interest expenses as seen below

                   Particulars                           Amount $

Annual payment                                      96,590

Less: Interest expenses                          14,000

Principal Payment                                  82,590

Hence, the principal payment =$82,590
