Answer:

b. $2,000

Explanation:

The computation of the interest amount is shown below:

= Sale value of goods × rate of interest × (number of months ÷ total number of months in a year)

= $40,000 × 10% × (6 months ÷ 12 months)

= $2,000

The 6 months is calculated from June 30 to December 31.

So, the b option is correct and rest options are wrong.
