Expert Solution

To determine

Interest Capitalization:

Interest capitalization refers to the interest amount that is added to the cost of the long-term asset. Such interest capitalization amount includes the interest amount of the debt which was financed for acquiring the asset.

To Calculate: The amount of interest that Company M should capitalize in 2018 and 2019 using the specific interest method.

Explanation of Solution

Calculate the amount of interest capitalized in the year 2018.

Month	Construction Expenditure ($)		Interest Outstanding (Number of months)		Accumulated Expenditure ($)
January 1, 2018	100,000	$×$	$1212$	=	1,000,000
March 1, 2018	600,000	$×$	$1012$	=	500,000
June 30, 2018	800,000	$×$	$612$	=	400,000
October 1, 2018	600,000		$312$	=	150,000
Accumulated expenditures (before interest)	$3,000,000
			Average accumulated expenditures		$2,050,000

Table (1)

Determine the capitalized interest.

$Capitalized interest = (Accumulated expenditure× Interest rate )=$2,050,000×10100= $205,000$

Calculate the amount of interest capitalized in the year 2019.

Month	Construction Expenditure		Interest Outstanding		Accumulated Expenditure
January 1, 2019	3,205,000	$×$	$99$	=	3,205,000
January 31, 2019	270,000	$×$	$89$	=	240,000
April 30, 2019	585,000	$×$	$59$	=	325,000
August 31, 2019	900,000	$×$	$19$	=	100,000
Accumulated expenditures (before interest)	4,960,000
			Average accumulated expenditure		3,870,000

Table (2)

Determine the weighted average rate of all other debt.

	Amount ($)		Interest rate		Interest Amount ($)
Long-term note 6%	$4,000,000	$×$	6%	=	240,000
Long-term note 8%	$6,000,000	$×$	8%	=	480,000
Total	$10,000,000				720,000

Table (3)

Working Note:

Determine the weighted-average interest rate.

$Weighted average =Interest amountAmount×100 =$720,000$10,000,000× 100=7.2%$

Determine the amount of difference.

$Amount of difference = (Average accumulated expenditure– Construction loan )= $3,870,000 – $3,000,000=$870,000$

Determine the interest on amount of difference.

$Interest on amount of difference = $870,000 × 7.2%×912= $46,980$

Determine the interest on amount on the construction loan.

$Interest on amount on the construction loan = $3,000,000 × 10100×912= $225,000$

Determine the capitalized interest.

$Capitalized interest = (Interest on connstruction loan+ Interest on amount)=$225,000+$46,980= $271,980$

Conclusion

Hence, the amount of interest capitalized in the year 2018, and 2019 are $205,000, and $271,980 respectively.

To determine

Interest Capitalization:

Interest capitalization refers to the interest amount that is added to the cost of the long-term asset. Such interest capitalization amount includes the interest amount of the debt which was financed for acquiring the asset.

To Calculate: The amount of interest that Company M should capitalize in 2018 and 2019 using the specific interest method.

Explanation of Solution

Calculate the amount of interest capitalized in the year 2018.

Month	Construction Expenditure ($)		Interest Outstanding (Number of months)		Accumulated Expenditure ($)
January 1, 2018	100,000	$×$	$1212$	=	1,000,000
March 1, 2018	600,000	$×$	$1012$	=	500,000
June 30, 2018	800,000	$×$	$612$	=	400,000
October 1, 2018	600,000		$312$	=	150,000
Accumulated expenditures (before interest)	$3,000,000
			Average accumulated expenditures		$2,050,000

Table (1)

Determine the capitalized interest.

$Capitalized interest = (Accumulated expenditure× Interest rate )=$2,050,000×10100= $205,000$

Calculate the amount of interest capitalized in the year 2019.

Month	Construction Expenditure		Interest Outstanding		Accumulated Expenditure
January 1, 2019	3,205,000	$×$	$99$	=	3,205,000
January 31, 2019	270,000	$×$	$89$	=	240,000
April 30, 2019	585,000	$×$	$59$	=	325,000
August 31, 2019	900,000	$×$	$19$	=	100,000
Accumulated expenditures (before interest)	4,960,000
			Average accumulated expenditure		3,870,000

Table (2)

Determine the weighted average rate of all other debt.

	Amount ($)		Interest rate		Interest Amount ($)
Long-term note 6%	$4,000,000	$×$	6%	=	240,000
Long-term note 8%	$6,000,000	$×$	8%	=	480,000
Total	$10,000,000				720,000

Table (3)

Working Note:

Determine the weighted-average interest rate.

$Weighted average =Interest amountAmount×100 =$720,000$10,000,000× 100=7.2%$

Determine the amount of difference.

$Amount of difference = (Average accumulated expenditure– Construction loan )= $3,870,000 – $3,000,000=$870,000$

Determine the interest on amount of difference.

$Interest on amount of difference = $870,000 × 7.2%×912= $46,980$

Determine the interest on amount on the construction loan.

$Interest on amount on the construction loan = $3,000,000 × 10100×912= $225,000$

Determine the capitalized interest.

$Capitalized interest = (Interest on connstruction loan+ Interest on amount)=$225,000+$46,980= $271,980$

Conclusion

Hence, the amount of interest capitalized in the year 2018, and 2019 are $205,000, and $271,980 respectively.
