Answer: $69,959

Explanation:

The amount of interest expense, that Corso will record on December 31, 2019, the company’s fiscal year end will be calculated thus:

First, we calculate the present value of payment which will be made on September 30,2020 and this will be:

= $1000000 × 0.857339

= $857339

Then, the interest expense on December 31,2018 will be:

= $857339 × 8%/12 × 3

= $17147

Therefore, the Interest expense on December 31,2019 will be:

= ($857339 + $17147) × 8%

= $874486 × 0.08

= $69959
