The issuance of note payable against cash will require the cash account to be debited and notes payable, which is a liability, to be credited.

2.

The interest on note payable for 6 months will become due and will be recorded on 31 July. The interest expense and interest payable accounts will be used.

The interest for 6 months is = 330000 * 0.1 * 6/12 = $16500

On 1 August, when the note and interest payable is paid, the cash will be credited by the sum of notes payable and interest payable accounts.
