    The the adjusting entry for accruing interest is:

    Debit Interest expense $1,750

    Credit Interest Payable $1,750

    Explanation:

    On December 1, Milton Company borrowed $350,000, at 6% annual interest.

    The interest amount Milton Company paid for 1 year = $350,000 x 6% = $21,000

    The interest amount Milton Company paid for a month = $21,000/12 = $1,750

    On December 31, following 1 month borrowing, Milton made adjusting entry for accruing interest:

    Debit Interest expense $1,750

    Credit Interest Payable $1,750
