Becker-Final review question from Ch9.

I posted it yesterday, but got no result.
The City of Thayer Point reported Revenues over
Expenditures of $25,000 for all governmental funds for
the year ended December 31, 20X2. The city had capital
outlay of $600,000 partially funded by debt proceeds of
$500,000 at December 31, 20X2. The city paid $219,000 of
debt service expenditures during the 20X2 year comprised
of principal payments of $500,000 and interest payments
of $119,000. Interest of 4 percent is due every six
months on April 1 and October 1 on total debt reported at
December 31, 20X1 of $3,000,000. The increase (decrease)
in net assets to be reported for the City's governmental
activities displayed on their government-wide Statement
of Activities is:
$226,000
$225,000
$224,000
$125,000

The correct answer is $226,000


Net changes in fund balance          ; ; 25,000

              Accrual period, 4 months      -$29,000
     Government wide Change in net assets     $226,000

Can you please explain why the interest accrual period is
4 months in both years? thanks
