Solution

The correct answer is Interest Income. When you earn interest but have not yet received it, you debit (increase) your Interest Receivable account, which is an asset account. At the same time, you credit (increase) your Interest Income account, which increases your income for the period. This is because you have earned the income by lending money or providing services, even though you have not yet received the cash.
