    So what is your question?

    To record the note payable your journal entry will be:
    Debit Cash for the amount received
    Credit Notes Payable for the amount

    For the adjusting entry you have to calculate the interest due for 3 months.

    The formula is: Principle * Rate * time, therefore 900,000 * 24% * 3/12 = interest due.

    The adjusting entry is:
    Debit Interest Expense for the amount calculated above
    Credit Interest Payable for the amount

    To record the payment your journal entry will be:
    Debit Interest Payable for the amount calculated above
    Debit Interest expense for 9 months interest
    Credit Cash for the total amount paid
