    Option (C) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Cash amount loaned = $36,000

    Rate of interest on note = 5%

    Time period: From September 1, Year 1 to December 31, Year 1 = 4 months

    Amount of Interest revenue:

    = Cash amount loaned * Interest rate * Time period

    = $36,000 * 0.05 * (4/12)

    = $36,000 * 0.05 * (1/3)

    = $599.9 or $600

    There is no cash flow from operating activity in respect of loan given to another company and interest revenue accrued on loan amount.
