1.
Compute the amount of each of the four equal total payments.
 
2.
Prepare an amortization table for this installment note. (Round your intermediate calculations to the nearest dollar amount.)
 
Explanation: 1. 
Amount of each payment = Initial note balance / Table B.3 value
= $33,000 / 3.4651 = $9,524

2.
Beginning Balance = Prior Ending Balance
Debit Interest Expense = 6% × Beginning Balance
Debit Notes Payable = Credit Cash – Debit Interest Expense
Credit Cash = computed
Ending Balance = Beginning Balance – Debit Notes Payable
