Explanation:

Note is a promissory note with a written promise made by the borrower to the lender (payee) to pay a certain, definite sum at a specified date.

Interest expense on the note is calculated as: Principal x Interest Rate x Time

First National Bank Note:

The total interest expense is $50,000 x 8%/12 x 9 months = $3,000.

Monthly interest expense is therefore $3,000 / 9 months = $333.33.

Total interest as at December 31, 2014 (July 1 - Dec 31): $333.33 x 6 months = $2,000.

Lyon County State Bank Note:

The total interest expense is $60,000 x 6%/12 x 3 months = $900.

Monthly interest expense is therefore $900 / 3 months = $300.

Total interest as at December 31, 2014 (Nov. 1 - Dec 31): $300 x 2 months = $600.
