An account receivable and a note receivable both refer to money that is owed to you/your company by another person/company. Both can be current assets or long term assets. However, the difference in the two is:A Note Receivable has some form of contract signed, [i.e. promissory note etc.] while an account receivable does not. A note receivable is generally paid out at equal interval payments and generally carries interest, while an account receivable can carry interest it generally does not.
Notes receivable come into existence when a promissory note is written in business favor, whereas accounts receivable are the persons to whom business have to receive money for credit sales.
A note receivable would be set up when a company lends money to another entity with the promise to pay back the amount at a later date (and normally to make scheduled interest payments).Since this account is an asset account, setting it up would be a Debit entry to the account. The entry would be:Debit Notes receivableCredit CashThis represents an increase to notes receivable (an asset account), and a decrease to cash (also asset) reflecting the outflow of cash to the entity that is borrowing the funds.
