Interest expense
The note payable to Royce Computers (transactions 04 and 07) is a five-year note, with interest at the rate of 12 percent annually. Interest expense should be computed based on a 360 day year.
[IMPORTANT NOTE: The original note on the computer equipment purchased on June 2 was $112,000.00. On June 10, eight days later, $21,500.00 was repaid. Interest expense must be
calculated on the $112,000.00 for eight days. In addition, interest expense on the $90,500.00 balance of the loan ($112,000.00 less $21,500.00 = $90,500.00) must be calculated for the 20 days remaining in the month of June.]
