Option (B) is correct.
Explanation:
The Journal entry is as follows:
Interest expense A/c Dr. $625
Note payable A/c Dr. $1791.60
To cash $$2,416.60
(To record the first month’s payment on January 31, 2021)
Working notes:
Monthly interest expense:
= (Note payable × Interest rate per annum) ÷ 12 months
= ($125,000 × 6%) ÷ 12 months
= $625
Note payable = $2,416.60 - $625
= $1,791.60
