The answer is A: Interest Revenue, Service Revenue.

Explanation:

  1. Interest Revenue, Service Revenue: These are revenue accounts. During the closing process, revenue accounts are closed by crediting them to transfer their balances to the Income Summary account. Therefore, this option is correct.

  2. Depreciation Expense, Dividends, Insurance Expense, Salary Expense: These are expense and dividend accounts. In the closing process, expense accounts and dividends are debited to close them, not credited. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

  3. Depreciation Expense, Insurance Expense, Salary Expense, Prepaid Insurance: Again, these are expense accounts and a prepaid asset account. Expense accounts are debited during the closing process, and prepaid insurance is an asset account that is not closed. Therefore, this option is incorrect.

  4. Accounts Receivable, Prepaid Insurance, Salary Expense: Accounts Receivable and Prepaid Insurance are asset accounts, and Salary Expense is an expense account. Asset accounts are not closed, and expense accounts are debited during the closing process. Therefore, this option is incorrect.
