The interest accrual entry debits an owners' equity account and credits
a. An asset accounts
b. A liability accounts
c. An owners' equity accounts
d. None of the above
Journal Entry will be
INTEREST EXPENSES XXX
ACCURED INTEREST XXX
Since interest expenses will reduce the retained earnings, so ultimately owners equity will decrease
so one effect is debit owners equity
Accured interest is current liability, so we have to credit the liability account to complete the journal entry
Hence Option B is correct.
