 Calculate interest revenue December 31, 2021  | 
|
| Interest revenue | (82000-12000)*10%*(1/2) | 
| Interest revenue | $ 3,500 | 
| Profit on sale | 82000-66000 | 
| Profit on sale | $ 16,000 | 
| Amount reported in income statement | 3500+16000 | 
| Amount reported in income statement | $ 19,500 | 
| Thus, amount Smith co record in income statement is $19,500 | |
| Option D : $19,500 | |
