    50,000x12%x15/360= 25.00
    80,000x9%x60/360 = 360.00

    Carlos signed a 6,000, 120-day,9% note on Oct. 1, 20x2, with interest to be paid on the due date.

    I really need help with theses two.

    Danly has a 90-day note receivable that is dated dec. 1, 20x1. The 12,000 note bears interest at 10% The principal and the interest will be received on the due date.

    1. record the December 31, 20x1 adjusting entry for accrued interest.

    2. Assuming no reversing entries, prepare the entry to record the receipt of the principal and interest on the due date.

    3. Assuming the use of reversing entries, prepare the January 1, 20x0, reversing entry.

    4. Assuming that the entry in (3) is made, prepare the entry to record the receipt of the principal and interest on the due date.


    Dexter company paid 2400 for a one -year insurance policy on August 1, 20xx.

    1. Record the December 31, 20xx adjusting entry if the August 1 entry was debited to an asset account.

    2. Record the December 31, 20xx adjusting entry if the August 1 entry was debited to an expense account.

    3. Make the January 1 20x1 reversing entries for (1) and (2).

    This accounting is something when you really don't have no one to teach it the right. So please help me.

    1. You have only accrued 4 days out of 5. So Expense should be 80% of 66,000. And not you don't pay CASH until Friday, so it should be an accounts payable.

    Actual answer:
    Salaries Expense Dr. 52,800
    Salaries Payable Cr. 52,800
    Calculation : 66,000 x 4/5 = 52,800

    You only have 1 day to expense (Jan 1….66,000x1/5=13,200)

    Salaries Payable Dr. 52,800 (paying off the liability)

    (b) $50,000 12% Dec. 16, 20x1
    (c) $80,000 9% Nov. 1, 200x1

    This what i did:
    30,000x10%x30/360= 25.00
    50,000x12%x15/360= 25.00
    80,000x9%x60/360 = 360.00
    I would have used 365 days, not 360. Other than that the calculation looks good.
    Your numbers appear to be off:
    30,000x10%x30/360= 250.00, NOT 25.00

    Answer should be (using 365)……
    30K note = 246.58
    50K note = 246.58
    80K note = 1,183.56

    Interest Expense Dr. 90.00
    interest payable Cr. 90.00
    0.09 x 6,000 = 540 in interest x 4/12 (only a 4mont note) = $180 (total interest for 4 months)

    3 of 4 months should be accrued. 180 x 3/4= 135
