if the bond’s current fair value with two years remaining is $944,800 and the amortized cost of the bond is 995,182, the current expected credit loss, assuming that the bond is classified as HTM is closest to:

A

[11,545]

the manager expects interest payments to be $3,000 less than every six months:

present value of face value at maturity =1,000,000×0.9422=942,200
present value of interest payments =10,750×3.8544=41,435
present value total: 942,200+41,435=983,635

loss=amortized cost - present value= 995.182-983,635=11,547

on Jan 1, Y3, S Co. began a construction project qualifying for capitalization of interest. the total amount spent on this project during Y3 was 250,000, spent uniformly during the year. to help pay for construction, $200,000 was borrowed at 10% on Jan 1, Y3, and funds not needed for construction were temporarily invested in short-term securities, yielding 3,000 in interest revenue. other than the construction funds borrowed, the only other debt outstanding during the year was a 150,000, 10-year, 7% note payable dated Jan 1, Y1. how much interest should be capitalized by S during Y3?

A

[12,500]
total expenditures of 250,000÷2
=125,000 average accumulated expenditures ×0.1 interest rate on specific borrowing
=12,500

compare avoidable interest to the actual total interest cost incurred and capitalize the lower amount.
actual interest 200,000× 0.1=20,000
150,000×0.7=10,500

30,500>12,500

capitalize the lower amount. interest earned on money invested is interest revenue, it does not affect the amount of interest expensed or capitalized.
