Explanation:

Note is a promissory note with a written promise made by the borrower to the lender (payee) to pay a certain, definite sum at a specified date.

Interest expense on the notes is calculated as: Principal x Interest Rate x Time

Nov. 1: In this case, the total interest revenue is: $63,600 x 9%/12 x 12 months = $5,724.

Interest expense as at December 31 is therefore $5,724 / 12 x 2 = $954.

Dec. 11: Total interest revenue is: $5,400 x 8%/12 x 3 months = $108.

Interest expense as at December 31 is therefore $108 / 90 days x 19 days = $23.

Dec. 16: Total interest revenue is: $14,400 x 6%/12 x 6 months = $432.

Interest expense as at December 31 is therefore $432 / 180 days x 14 days = $34.
