Stephenson Inc. began to construct a building for its use on January 1, 2018. All costs associated with the construction are being debited to an account called Construction-in-Progress. The construction will take approximately 24 months. Weighted-average expenditures for 2018 have already been determined to be $1,800,000.

The company has one specific as well as two non-specific loan borrowings. Details are as follows:

Specific Loan Borrowing: $1,000,000 loan at 12% taken out 1/1/2018 and due in 2019.

Non-specific Borrowings:

Note #2: $700,000 at 12%. This loan was outstanding for all of 2018 and is due in 2020.
