Explanation of Solution
Note 3 has been dishonored on its due date. To record the dishonor on note, full value of note and accrued interest on note must be recorded as accounts receivable at the date of maturity. To record the defaulted note, accounts receivable and interest revenue should be increased and notes receivable should be eliminated. Hence,
- An increase in accounts receivable (asset account) is debited with $42,840,
- A decrease in notes receivable (asset account) is credited with $42,000, and
- An increase in interest revenue (
stockholders’ equity account) is credited with $840.

- Interest revenue earned for last 28 days has to be recognized at maturity date. Hence, to increase the interest revenue balance, credit the interest revenue account with $126 (10).
- Collection of cash on note increases cash. Hence, to increase the cash account balance, debit the cash account with $27,270.
On January 29, company has collected cash on note along with interest on its note receivable on Note 6. When a notes receivable is matured, it has to be cancelled by decreasing the note receivable account.
