4. Based on the information given the Interest will be determined by using Effective interest method

5. Calculation for the stated annual interest rate

Stated annual interest rate = 280,000/7,000,000 = 4*2

Stated annual interest rate = 8%

6. Calculation for the effective annual interest rate

Effective interest rate = 293,611/4,893,518

Effective interest rate= 6*2

Effective interest rate= 12%

7. Calculation for the total cash interest paid over the term to maturity

Total cash paid for interest = 280000*40

Total cash paid for interest = $11,200,000

8. Calculation for the total effective interest expense recorded over the term to maturity

Total effective interest expense = $11,200,000+2,106,482

Total effective interest expense=$ 13,306,482

(4,893,518-7,000,000=2,106,482)
