Your company has loaned money to an outside entity. You earned the monthly interest on the loan but have not received the payment yet. The payment is expected to be received next month. To capture the interest expected to be received in the future, you have created account #901, Interest Receivable, in your chart of accounts and booked the journal entry to DR: Interest Receivable and CR: Interest Income. While the basic journal entry was correct, your manager is questioning how you set up this new account. What needs to be corrected in the chart of accounts shown below, and how would you fix it?
