Answer:

C. $13000

Explanation:

Face Value 900000  

Interest Rate 10%  

Half Yearly Interest Rate 5%

900000 × 5% =  45,000

Amortization = (900000 - 820000) * 2 months /80 months = 2,000

Accrued Interest = 34,000

Amount reported in Blossom 2021 Income Statement

= Total Interest + Amortization -Accrued Interest

45,000 + 2,000 - 34,000

= $13,000
