Construction Expenditures:

Date                         Expenditure    Weight    Weighted Average

January 2, 2020       $603,000       12/12             $603,000

September 1, 2020    1,810,800        4/12               603,600

December 31, 2020  1,810,800         0/12              0

Accumulated Weighted-Average Expenditure $1,206,600

January 2, 2020 Construction Loan   $3,300,000

Interest rate of construction loan = 10%

Capitalized Interest for 2020 = $1,206,600 * 10% = $120,660

2021 Expenditure:

March 31, 2021           1,810,800

September 30, 2021  1,218,000
