Impact of Interest Expense on the Balance Sheet
During the year, you paid the bank the $5 interest expense on your loan. Accordingly, your cash balance was reduced, along with the retained earnings account. Note that there was no impact on the debt balance because you have not paid down any principal.
| Debits | Credits | |
|---|---|---|
| Interest expense (SE): | $5 | |
| Cash (A): | $5 |
