You notice that the journal entry for recording the note on July 10 is correct, but the entry for the payment of the note at maturity (including interest) did not have a date and was not correct.

Journalize the payment of the note at maturity as it should have been journalized. Don't forget to include the date. Assume a 360-day year.
