Accounting

On January 1, 2021, the company obtained a $3 million loan with a 11% interest rate. The building was completed on September 30, 2022. Expenditures on the project were as follows:

March 1, 2021 840,000
June 30, 2021 480,000
October 1, 2021 680,000
January 31, 2022 630,000
April 30, 2022 945,000
August 31, 2022 1,620,000

On January 1, 2021, the company obtained a $3 million construction loan with a 11% interest rate. Assume the $3 million loan is not specifically tied to construction of the building. The loan was outstanding all of 2021 and 2022. The companys other interest-bearing debt included two long-term notes of $4,800,000 and $6,800,000 with interest rates of 8% and 10%, respectively. Both notes were outstanding during all of 2021 and 2022. Interest is paid annually on all debt. The companys fiscal year-end is December 31. Required: 1. Calculate the amount of interest that Mason should capitalize in 2021 and 2022 using the weighted-average method. 2. What is the total cost of the building? 3. Calculate the amount of interest expense that will appear in the 2021 and 2022 income statements.
