Answer:
a. Interest revenue = $2,700
b. Weighted-average accumulated expenditures = $54,000
c. Avoidable interest = $6,480
d. Total interest cost to be capitalized = $6,480
Explanation:
The computation of interest revenue, weighted-average accumulated expenditures, avoidable interest, and total interest cost to be capitalized is shown below:-
a. Interest revenue = (Issued notes payable - Interest payable) × Short-term marketable securities × From 1 Aug to 31 Oct ÷ Total number of months in a year
= ($324,000 - $216,000) × 10% × 3 months ÷ 12
= $108,000 × 10% × 3 months ÷ 12
= $2,700
b. Weighted-average accumulated expenditures = Interest payable × Short-term marketable securities × From 1 Aug to 31 Oct ÷ Total number of months in a year
= $216,000 × 3 months ÷ 12
= $54,000
Here we will not consider 1 Nov because it contains 0 months so answer is $54,000
c. Avoidable interest = Weighted-average accumulated expenditures × Notes payable percentage
= $54,000 × 12%
= $6,480
d. Total interest cost to be capitalized = Weighted-average accumulated expenditures × Notes payable percentage
= $54,000 × 12%
= $6,480
We simply applied the above formulas
