The amount repaid 264000 consists of interest on one million for one quarter at 9% p.a. plus part-principal; the interest works out to 1000000*0.25*9/100= 22500; the principal repaid is therefore: 264000-22500= 241500. This 241500 reduces the balance in Notes Payable account to [1000000-241500] = 758500.

here is the working:Interest for next quarter= 758500*0.25*0.09=17066; so, principal portion repaid is 264000-17066=246934; new balance in notes payable is 758500-246934=511566;
Interest for next quarter= 511566*0.09*.025=11510; so, principal portion repaid is 264000-11510=252490;
Interest for next quarter= 252490*0.25*0.09=5681; total amount to pay off the balance outstanding in notes payable a/c= 252490+5681=258171. Hope this helps.

Can you provide a journal entry for this problem? Total
future payment for interest and principal will be
1,056,800 however, the face plus the acrrued interest
should total 1,090,000 right?
