    Explanation:

    December 31 Interest receivable Debit $4,000

    Interest revenue Credit $4,000

    Calculation: $600,000 * 8% * (1 : 12) = $48,000 * (1 : 12) = $4,000. Therefore, the monthly interest revenue = $4,000.

    As Starr corporation provided a loan on December 1, they received interest revenue for 3 months. However, as the fiscal year closes on December 31, the interest revenue is owed for one month only.
