Answer:

a. $842,250

b. $842,250

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. For avoidable interest

<u>Weighted average               Interest rate applied  avoidable interest</u>

<u>accumulated expenditures </u>

$5,205,000                               10%                           $520,500

$2,925,000                                11%                            $321,750

Total                                                                             $842,250

($8,130,000 - $5,205,000)

Working note for interest rate applied

<u>Particulars                   Principal                Interest</u>

12% ten year bond    $6,047,000            $725,640    

9% 3 year bond         $3,023,500            $272,115

total                            $9,070,500            $997,755

Now the interest rate is

= $997,755 ÷ $9,070,500

= 11%

2. Now the total interest capitalized is

Total interest is

= $520,500 + $725,640 + $272,115

= $1,518,255

And, the total avoidable interest is $842,250

So we considered the lesser amount i.e. $842,250

Technological companies, should focus on innovation, as each day more advances in technology appear to correct possible system errors, make the user's performance and use better and make production costs cheaper. With regard to the Operating System for computers, Microsoft has always evolved in launching new, more evolved versions, and making the previous ones obsolete for use, but one of the company's failures was to have lost the timing to develop an OS aimed at the use in cell phones, since that the company tried to enter this market, but was unsuccessful, and was defeated by its biggest competitors: Google and Apple.
