Expenditures for the construction were as follows: Indian River Groves borrowed $2,200,000 on a construction loan at 12% interest on January 2, 2014.

Answer:

the expenditures are missing, so I looked for a similar question:

  • 1/2/2014 $400,000
  • 7/1/2014 $1,200,000
  • 12/31/2014 $1,200,000
  • 3/31/2015 $1,200,000
  • 9/30/2015 $800,000

Weighted average expenditures for 2014:

January 1 = $400,000 x 1 = $400,000

July 1 = $1,200,000 x 1/6 = $600,000

December 31 = $1,200,000 x 0 = $0

total = $1,000,000

Since the company borrowed $2,200,000 specifically for this construction project, then capitalized interests = $1,000,000 x 12% = $120,000
