Explanation:

We need to calculate the interest accrued on all the notes. We will then add the interests on these notes and credit interest revenue by that amount and debit interest receivable.

Interest revenue on Note 1

Interest Revenue = 66000 * 0.05 * 2/12 = $550

Interest revenue on Note 2

Number of days interest is accrued for is 20 days (31-11=20)

Assuming a 360 day year.

Interest revenue = 5400 * 0.07 * 20/360 = $21

Interest revenue on Note 3

No of days interest is accrued for is 15 (31-16 = 15)

Assuming a 360 day year.

Interest revenue = 7200 * 0.09 * 15/360 = $27

Total Interest revenue = 550 + 21 + 27 = $598
