(This is a variation of Exercise A?2, modified to consider the extended method.)On January 1, 2021, LLB Industries borrowed $200,000 from Trust Bank by issuing a two-year, 10% note, with interest payable quarterly. LLB entered into a two-year interest rate swap agreement on January 1, 2021, and designated the swap as a fair value hedge. Its intent was to hedge the risk that general interest rates will decline, causing the fair value of its debt to increase. The agreement called for the company to receive payment based on a 10% fixed interest rate on a notional amount of $200,000 and to pay interest based on a floating interest rate. The contract called for cash settlement of the net interest amount quarterly.Floating (LIBOR) settlement rates were 10% at January 1, 8% at March 31, and 6% at June 30, 2021. The fair values of the swap are quotes obtained from a derivatives dealer. Those quotes and the fair values of the note are as follows:

January 1 June 30 March 31 Fair value of interest rate swap

Required:Prepare the journal entries through June 30, 2021, to record the issuance of the note, interest, and necessary adjustments for changes in fair value. Use the extended method demonstrated in Illustration A?5.

January 1 June 30 March 31 Fair value of interest rate swap Fair value of note payable $ 6,472 $ 11,394 $200,000 $206,472 $211,394
