On January 1, 2016, the company obtained a $3 million construction loan with a 12% interest rate. The loan was outstanding all of 2016 and 2017. The companys other interest-bearing debt included two long-term notes of $5,600,000 and $7,600,000 with interest rates of 8% and 10%, respectively. Both notes were outstanding during all of 2016 and 2017. Interest is paid annually on all debt. The companys fiscal year-end is December 31. Assume the $3 million loan is not specifically tied to construction of the building.
