September 21:

This is exactly 90 days --- June23 to September 21 = 7 + 31 + 31 + 21 = 90.

Once the note is dishonored on maturity, interest would be charged. In that case accounts receivable will be charged more, by the addition of note amount and interest amount.

Interest amount = Note amount × Rate × Days

                        = $48,000 × 8% × (90/360)

                        = $960 (after rounding to dollar value)

October 21:

Here the interest would be charged for additional period of 30 days (from 21/09 to 21/10) at 10% rate. The amount of cash is the aggregate of accounts receivable and interest amount.

Interest amount = Accounts receivable amount × Rate × Days

                        = $48,960 × 10% × (30/360)

                        = $408 (after rounding to dollar value)
