Answer:

Interest Receivable 6,490 debit

Interest Revenue 6,490 credit

(To record interest revenue from Stellar Enterprises loan)

Step-by-step explanation:

The banks accounting will reflect the accrued interest as well. From their perpective, the interest are revenue as they are the lender of the loan.

It will recognize the interest revenue from the accounting period

and will declare the interest receivable for the same amount.

From this we can deduct:

the payable from one entity is a receivable for another entry.

the interest expense from one firm will be interest revenue for another.
