Interest paid on loan taken from IMF will be recorded in ________ side of ________ account.

Solution

Correct Option: 2

Interest paid on a loan is an income payment (factor income going abroad), which falls under the current account as investment income. Since it is a payment going out of the country, it is recorded on the debit side. Hence interest paid on an IMF loan is recorded on the debit side of the current account.
