1. Prepare Monty's journal entries for (a) the January 1 issuance and (b) the December 31 interest

The journal entries are as follows:

                 To  Cash    $1,280

                  To Amortization of Note discount   $1,626.88

(To record interest on note payable)

Working note:

Discount on note issued:

= Issue price - Selling price of computer received

= ($32,000 - $24,224)

= $7,776

Face value of note = $32,000, Book value of note = $24,224

Interest payment, Dec 31:

= Face value x Coupon rate

= $32,000 x 4%

= $1,280

Interest expense, Dec 31:

= Book value x Market rate

= $24,224 x 12%

= $2,906.88
