Respuesta :

Answer:

C. Interest Receivable$40

        Interest Revenue$40

Explanation:

 The adjusting entry is shown below:

Interest receivable Dr $40

       To Interest revenue $40

(Being the accrued interest is recorded)    

The computation is shown below:

= $9,600 × 5 months × 1 months ÷ 12 months

= $40

For recording this journal entry we debited the interest receivable as it increased the assets and credited the interest revenue as it also increased the revenues

And the one month is taken from March 1 to March 31
