TOPIC 3 (NOTES RECEIVABLE)
Overview
This course covers the detailed discussion, appreciation, and application of

the Philippine Financial Reporting Standards (PFRS) on the assets, financial and
non-financial of a business enterprise. Emphasis is given on the interpretation and
application of the accounting standards on Financial Assets and their required
disclosures. The related internal control, ethical issues and management of assets
are also covered. Exposure to computerized system in receivables, inventory and
lapsing schedules is a requirement.
I. Objectives
At the end of the module, the following are expected:
A. Identify the proper presentation of receivables as either current or noncurrent assets.
B. State the timing of recognition and measurement of trade and other receivables.
C. Prepare amortization tables.
D. Account for impairment of receivables.

II. Learning Activities
NOTES RECEIVABLE
A note receivable is a written promise to receive a specific amount of

cash from another party on one or more future dates. This is treated as an asset
by the holder of the note. Overdue accounts receivable are sometimes
converted into notes receivable, thereby giving the debtor more time to pay,
while also sometimes including a personal guarantee by the owner of the
debtor.
The payee is the party who receives payment under the terms of the
note, and the maker is the party obligated to send funds to the payee. The
amount of payment to be made, as listed in the terms of the note, is the
principal. The principal is to be paid on the maturity date of the note.
INITIAL MEASUREMENT
Short-term notes receivable is measured at face value and is not

discounted. Conversely, long-term notes receivable is measured initially at
present value which is the sum of all future cash flows discounted using
the effective interest rate for the same or similar notes.
INTEREST BEARING NOTES
These notes are measured at face value or the present value upon
issuance.
ILLUSTRATION
On January 1, 2019, Happy Company sold to Life Company a land costing

P2,000,000, for P3,000,000. Life Co. paid P1,000,000 down and signed a two-year
promissory note for the balance plus 10% interest that will be compounded
annually. The note matures at the beginning of 2021.
Journal entries:
2019
Jan. 1 Cash P1,000,000
Notes receivable P2,000,000
Land P2,000,000
Gain on sale of land P1,000,000
Dec. 31 Accrued interest receivable P200,000

Interest income P200,000
(P2,000,000*10%)
2020
Dec. 31 Accrued interest receivable P220,000
(P2,200,000*10%)
2021
Jan. 1 Cash P2,220,000
Notes receivable P2,000,000
Accrued interest receivable P220,000
NON-INTEREST BEARING NOTE
These notes are measured at present value or the discounted value of

the future cash flows using the effective interest rate. “Non-interest bearing”
does not mean that it does not have any interest. It simply means that the interest
is already included in the face amount of the note.
ILLUSTRATION (1)
Ichibi Company is a manufacturing company. On January 1, 2019, it sold a
machinery costing P200,000 for P300,000. The buyer signed a non-interest
bearing note for P300,000 to be paid in four equal installments every year-end. The
cash selling price of the machinery is P250,000.
Face value of note P300,000

Present value (cash selling price) P250,000
Unearned interest income P 50,000
Selling price P250,000
Cost of machinery P200,000
Gross income P 50,000
To record the sale:
Notes receivable P300,000
Sales P250,000
To record the first installment collection:

Cash P 75,000
Note receivable P 75,000
To recognize the unearned interest as income:

Interest income P 20,000
Journal entries for the current year:
Computation of interest income:

Notes receivable Fraction Interest income
2019 300,000 4/10 (50,000*4/10) = 20,000
2020 225,000 3/10 (50,000*3/10) = 15,000
2021 150,000 2/10 (50,000*2/10) = 10,000
2022 75,000 1/10 (50,000*1/10) = 5,000
750,000 50,000

down payment and signed a non-interest bearing note for P600,000 that is payable
in three equal installments of P200,000 every year-end.
