Answer:

See explanation section

Explanation:

1. Journal entry to record the interest due on December 31, 3021 is as follows:

Debit   Interest Expense           $6,000 (Note - 1)                    

Credit   Interest Payable                          $6,000

As interest expense incurs but not paid during the year, a liability will increase. The liability is an interest payable.

Note - 1: Interest expense calculation = Loan × Interest rate × (Number of months due ÷ 12)

Interest expense = $100,000 × 8% × (9 ÷ 12)

Interest expense = $6,000

April 1, 2021 - December 31, 2021 = 9 months.

2. Issuing stock for cash journal entry -

Debit  Cash           $5,000

Credit  Common stock      $5,000
