interest payable   66,000

note payable      384,000

       Land                            325,000

       Gain on disposal         125,000

Explanation:

600,000 x 11% = 66,000 interest payable

the land is being used to settle the note along with the accrued interest at the time:

the accounting  of Transit developments record the land at cost: 325,000

as the market valuye is 450,000 so a gain for 125,000 will be recognize.

450,000 market value - 66,000 interest payable: 384,000 payment on the note principal

the entry will write-off the interest payable, decrease the note by that amount and recognize the land gain on disposal
