(To record loan given)

(b) On December 31, 2021

Interest receivable ($600,000 × 11% × 9/12)  A/c     Dr. $49,500

(To record accrued interest)

(c) On April 1, 2022

Notes:

Interest revenue on April 1, 2022:

= 11% of loan amount for 12 months - Accrued interest

= 0.11 × $600,000 - $49,500

= $66,000 - $49,500

= $16,500
