    (E) net income is overstated by $225

    Explanation:

    With omitted income of $540 which is earned shall be added to revenue thus no with this revenue was understated.

    Accrued interest payable is a liability to be recorded even if it is to be paid at a later date.

    This is an expense to be recognized in Income Statement and a liability in balance sheet.

    If not recognized means income is overstated with the same amount.

    Net effect is - 540 + 225 = $315 revenue understated

    Since it is not in option correct option relevant is

    (E) net income is overstated by $225.
