Answer and Explanation:

The journal entries are shown below:

On Aug 1

Short­-term investments $70,000  

        To Cash $70,000

(Being the short term investment is recorded)

Here short term investment is debited as it increased the asset and credited the cash as it decreased the asset

On Oct 30

Cash ($70,000 × 11% × 90 days ÷ 360 days) 1,925  

       To Interest revenue $1,925

(Being the interest revenue is recorded)

here cash is debited as it increased the asset and credited the interest revenue as it also increased the revenue

Here we assume 360 days in a year
