Answer:

tractor 35,127,42 debit

note payable 32,172.42 credit

cash 3,000 credit

--to record issuance--

Note payale end of 2018

39,584.19

note payables at Dec 31th

Note payable at the end of 2019

39,584.19

note payables at Dec 31th

Explanation:

As the note has zero.interest we discount the note to get the present value:

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]

Maturity $44,000.0000

time 3.00

rate 0.11

[tex]\frac{44000}{(1 + 0.11)^{3} } = PV[/tex]

PV 32,172.42

The difference will be a discount that will acrrue interest overtime.

the truck will enter the accounting net of interest charges thus:

3,000 downpayment + 32,127.42 = 35,127.42‬

interest will be: 32,127.42 x 1.11 = 32,127.41

Then, do the same for 2019

(32,127.41 + 3,532.0162) x 1.11 = 39,584.19
