Answer:
$2,317,000
Explanation:
The computation of the weighted-average accumulated expenditures for interest capitalization purposes is shown below:
For expenditure on March 1
= $1,932,000 × 10 months ÷ 12 months
= $1,610,000
On June 1
= $1,212,000 × 7 months ÷ 12 months
= $707,000
On December 31, it would be zero
So, the accumulated expenditures is
= $1,610,000 + $707,000
= $2,317,000
Using the cpi in 2013, of 233 and in 1998 of 163, divide 233/163=1.43 x 100=$143 the cost in 2013 of the same baby shower item as in 1998. In other words the purchasing power of the $1 decreased over this time period to account for this.
