    B. $15,556

    Explanation:

    As given in the question

    Face value of bond = $400,000

    Carrying value of bond = $388,900

    Discount from par value = $11,100

    Coupon rate = 3%

    Bond yielding rate = 4%

    Interest revenue for the year = Carrying value of bond x Bond yielding rate

    Interest revenue for the year = 388,900 x 4%

    Interest revenue for the year = $15,556

    The correct option is B. $15,556.
