500,000 x 12% = 60,000 construction realted per year

Capitalize:

timeline:

<--/--/--/--/--/--/--/--/--/--/--/--/-->

each month the company is doing an spending related to the construction. We must capitalize based on the amount investment.

The first month capitalize throught the whole year,

the second month 11 months

the third for 10 months and so on.

Therefore, the capitalize amount will be half of the cost of the year

2014: interest capitalized through the cost of construction

600,000/2 x 12% = 36,000

400,000/2 x 12% = 24,000

That's the maximum amount we can capitalize for construction.
