On June 8, Alton Co. issued an $68,100, 11%, 120-day note payable to Seller Co. Assume that the fiscal year of Seller Co. ends June 30. Using a 360-day year in your calculations, what is the amount of interest revenue recognized by Seller in the following year? When required, round your answer to the nearest dollar.

Period of note = 120 days
Days in current year = From 8 june to 30th june = 22 days
Days in following year = 120 - 22 = 98 days
Interest revenue recognized by seller in the following year = $68,100 * 11% *98/360 = $2,039
