Explanation of Solution

Option d, $625 is correct.

Given,

Value of bond is $30,000.

Interest rate is 5%.

Interest paid on February 1 and on August 1.

Calculate amount of interest accrued on December 31.

Formula to calculate the interest is,

  Interest=Value of bond×Interest rate×Number of months

Substitute $30,000 for value of bond, 5% for interest rate and 5 months (from August to December) in the above equation.

  Interest=$30,000×5100×512=$625

Thus, the amount of interest revenue accrued at December 31 is $625.
