Dear Student

From this information we have to find the Interest paid in the current year and Interest charged to profit and loss account, this shall be done by preparing Interest account :
 
Interest on Bank OD 
          Cr.
Date Particulars Amount Date Particulars Amount
(Rs) (Rs)
  Bal B/d 10,000   Profit and Loss A/c 10,000
           
           
  Bank OD A/c 15,000      
           
        Bal C/d 15,000
           
    25,000     25,000

The opening balance of Interest account which was,nt charge to profit and loss account shall be charged to profit and loss account of current year and thr closing balance represents the amount of interest paid in current year.

The amount charge to profit and loss is added in operating activity whereas the amount paid is deducted in Financing activity.
Therefore Rs 10,000- shall be added in operating activity and Rs 15,000/- shall be deducted in Financing activity.
