journal entrys

i was wondering if someone could help me with some journal entries...

It says : borrowed 100,000 at 9% interest from the local bank to finance the purchase of equipment with a cost of 150,000. The equipment has a 10 year life and a 20,000 residual value. The note is for 5 years with interest paid annually each Oct. 2.


I am guessing:

Debit interest expense (100000 x 9%)
credit residual value 20,000
debit gain on account 11,000


can you please help?
