    a. Daniel must recognize $300 interest income for 2017 and a $200 gain on the sale of the bond in 2018

    Explanation:

    Since the interest was collected of $600 and the accrued interest is $300, so the remaining amount $300 reflect the interest income

    And, the sale value of the bond is $10,200 without considering the interest collection and its purchase price without considering the accrued interest is $10,000. So, after comparing the purchase price and the sale price the gain of $200 would be determined

    $10,200 - $10,000 = $200
