Interest is received at the end of each year.On 1 Jan 2021, Entity B tells Entity A that it is in significant financial difficulties. At this time the current market interest rate is 8%.Entity A estimates that it will receive no more interest from Entity B. It also estimates that only $6,000 of the loan will be repaid on the redemption date.?REQUIREDIf the four-year loan is measured at amortised cost, evaluate the interest income of the four-year loan which recognized in the Statement of Profit or Loss for the year of 2021.
