Answer:

The computation is shown below:

Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

a. Account payable $70,000

           To Notes payable $70,000

(Being the issuance of the note is recorded)

b. Note payable $70,000

  Interest expense $1,575

              To Cash $71,575

(Being the payment of the note at maturity date including interest is recorded)

The computation is shown below:

= $70,000 × 9% × 90 days ÷ 360 days

= $1,575

We assume 360 days in a year

Now the effects on the accounts and the financing statement for issuance of the note is shown below:

Balance sheet

Assets          =   Liabilities   + Stockholder equity    Income statement  cash flow statement

No effect = Account payable - $52,000 + No effect  No effect + no effect

                   Note payable + $52,000
