Question

On February 1, 2021, a company loans one of its employees $29,000 and accepts a ten-month, 8% note receivable. Calculate the amount of interest revenue the company will recognize in 2021

Answer 1

Answer:

Calculation of interest revenue:

Interest revenue = $29,000 x 8% x 10/12 = $1,933

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculation:

Feb. 1, 2021 Loan to employees = $29,000

Ten-month, 8% note receivable

Interest revenue = $29,000 x 8% x 10/12 = $1,933

The note is for 10 months, but the rate of interest is 8% per annum.  After the rate is applied on the loan to get an interest of $2,320, this will then be multiplied by 10 and divided by 12 to get the 10 months interest revenue.  These loans to employees are expected to be repaid by the end of November, 2021 with the interest.
