Answer and Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

1. Cash Dr $2,600,000

        To Note payable $2,600,000

(Being the issuance of the note is recorded)

For recording this we debited the cash as it increased the assets and credited the note payable as it also increased the liabilities
