    Answer: Option (B) is correct.

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Interest Revenue = $141,000

    Salaries and Wages Expense = 210,000

    Insurance Expense = 21,000

    Interest Receivable (2017) = $18,200

    Interest Receivable (2016) = $15,000

    Salaries and Wages payable (2017) = $17,800

    Salaries and Wages payable (2016) = $8,400

    Cash Received for Interest:

    = Opening Accrued Interest Receivable + Interest Revenue - Closing Accrued Interest Receivable

    = $15,000 + $141,000 - $18,200

    = $137,800

    (B) $137,800

    Explanation:

    For the provided information, we have,

    Interest Revenue for 2017 = $141,000

    Interest Receivable Opening = $15,000

    Interest Receivable Closing = $18,200

    Therefore, Cash received for interest = Opening interest receivables + Interest revenue for the period - Closing interest receivables

    = $15,000 + $141,000 - $18,200 = $137,800

    Note: Interest Expense for the period will not be considered. As, Interest expense and interest revenue are both different items.

    Thus, correct option is;

    (B) $137,800
