Answer:

adjusting entry should be :

Note Receivable $1,806  (debit)

Interest Income $1,806  (credit)

Explanation:

On Issuance of the note the entries recorded are :

Note Receivable $25,800 (debit)

Sales Revenue $25,800 (credit)

At year end, December 31, 42 days would have expired, thus the interest of 42 days accrues on the Note Receivable. Entries are as follows :

Note Receivable $1,806  (debit)

Interest Income $1,806  (credit)

Interest Calculation = $25,800 × 10% × 42/60

                                 = $1,806
