Explanation:

principal x rate x time = interest

where time and rate must be express in the same metric.

In this case portion of a 360 year

260,000  x 0.05 x 45/360 = 1,625

At maturity we write-off the note account and reocgnize the interest expense/revenue depending on which side we are.

if we issued the noe, we are doin an interest expense.

If we have the note we receive the cash get interest revenue.
