Answer:

Journal entry to record the December 31, 2019, interest accrual

Dr. Interest Receivable 2,500

Cr. Interest Revenue     2,500

Interest revenue is calculated by multiplying face value of $50,000 (50 x $1,000 ) with coupon rate of 5% as follows

It is accrued and a receivable will be made against an interest income in this event as shown in the journal entry.
