On January 1, 2024, ABC Company borrowed $215,000 from the bank. The loan requires annual payments of $29,100 every December 31, beginning December 31, 2024. Assume the loan has an interest rate of 10% compounded annually. Calculate the amount of the note payable at December 31, 2025 that would be classified as a current liability.
Ans:
The interest would be accrued every year and would get added up to the notes payable account. The total notes payables as at 31 December 2025 would be as follows :
$ |
Principal |
Interest |
Annual payment |
Closing |
31st Dec 2024 |
215000 |
21,500 |
29100 |
207,400 |
31st Dec2025 |
207,400 |
20,740 |
29100 |
199,040 |
Of the above, only $ 29,100 would be classified as currently liability as that would be the amount that would be paid in the next 1 year.
