- I have tried to complete the schedule for Week3. I'm having an issue trying to figure out the specific interest method to determine the amount of interest capitalized on the building construction. Can you please tell what I am doing wrong with this problem?
Create a schedule that outlines the total spend for San Antonio on the construction expenses. Develop a schedule that shows initial values of the various assets that San Antonio acquired or constructed during 2013. The company uses the specific interest method to determine the amount of interest capitalized on the building construction. Develop a schedule that shows the total interest expense that San Antonio will need to show for 2013 as it relates to construction of the new facility. San Antonio Outfitters Early in its fiscal year ending December 31, 2013, San Antonio Outfitters finalized plans to expand operations. The first stage was completed on April 30th with the purchase of a tract of land on the outskirts of the city. The land and existing building were purchased for $800,000. San Antonio paid $200,000 and signed a noninterest-bearing note requiring the company to pay the remaining $600,000 on April 30, 2015. An interest rate of 8% properly reflects the time value of money for this type of loan agreement. Title search, insurance, and other closing costs totaling $20,000 were paid at closing. During April, the old building was demolished at a cost of $70,000, and an additional $50,000 was paid to clear and grade the land. Construction of a new building began on May 1 and was completed on October 29. Construction expenditures were as follows: San Antonio borrowed $3,000,000 at 8% on May 1 to help finance construction. This loan, plus interest, will be paid in 2014. In November, the company purchased 10 identical pieces of equipment and ofice furniture and fixtures for a lump-sum price of $600,000 on account. The fair values of the equipment and the furniture and fixtures were $455,000 and $245,000, respectively. In December, San Antonio paid a contractor $285,000 for the construction of parking lots and for landscaping. Below is the trial balance for San Antonio Outfitters as of March 31.
