Solution

To calculate the total interest due on the maturity date, you can use the formula for simple interest which is:

I = PRT

where: I = Interest P = Principal amount (the initial amount of money) R = Rate of interest T = Time the money is borrowed for in years

In this case, P = $15,000, R = 10% (or 0.10 as a decimal), and T = 120/360 (since we're using a 360-day year and the note is for 120 days).

So, the calculation would be:

I = $15,000 * 0.10 * (120/360)

Solving this gives:

I = $500.00

So, the total interest due on the maturity date is $500.00.
