Explanation:

Interest expense refers to charges paid for borrowing money. It is the money that a lender charges  borrower for borrowing money from him. In the income statement, it represents interest to be paid on borrowings such as bonds, loans, convertible debt or lines of credit. It is calculated as product of the interest rate times the outstanding principal amount of the debt.

Given that:

Moonbooks received $79,380 =  principal amount of debt (P)

The interest rate (r) = 8% annually = 0.08.

Interest expense payable for 2018 (first year) = P × r = $79380 × 0.08 = $6350

For the second year i.e 2019 The principal amount of debt = $79380  + $6360 = $85730

Interest expense payable for 2019 (second year) = P × r = $85730 × 0.08 = $6858
