Count the number of days in each month until the total number of days is reached for the term of the note and this will be the due date. Interest is not charged on the first day of the note.

Typically, the maker of a dishonored note fails to pay the note on the due date. A company that holds a dishonored note transfers the face amount of the note plus any interest due back to an accounts receivable account. Interest revenue is not dependent on receiving the interest at this point.

Cash received will include the maturity value of the note.

2. Journalize the entry to record the dishonor of Note (3) on its due date. If an amount box does not require an entry, leave it blank.

3. (Note 5) Calculate the number of days of interest that accrues between November 15 and December 31. Remember interest is not charged on the first day of the note. Use this to calculate: (a) Interest Rate x Face Amount = Annual Interest. (b) Annual Interest x (number of days to end of year 360 days) = interest on note to the end of the year Interest receivable is debited and interest revenue is credited. (Note 6) Calculate the number of days of interest that accrues between December 10 and December 31. Remember interest is not charged on the first day of the note. Use this to calculate: (a) Interest Rate x Face Amount = Annual Interest. (b) Annual Interest x (number of days to end of year 360 days) = interest on note to the end of the year Interest receivable is debited and interest revenue is credited.
