Pollachek Co. purchased land as a factory site for $450,000. The process of tearing down two old buildings
on the site and constructing the factory required 6 months. The company paid $42,000 to raze the old
buildings and sold salvaged lumber and brick for $6,300. Legal fees of $1,850 were paid for title
investigation and drawing the purchase contract. Pollachek paid $2,200 to an engineering firm for a land
survey, and $65,000 for drawing the factory plans. The land survey had to be made before definitive plans
could be drawn. Title insurance on the property cost $1,500, and a liability insurance premium paid during
construction was $900. The contractor's charge for construction was $2,740,000. The company paid the
contractor in two installments: $1,200,000 at the end of 3 months and $1,540,000 upon completion. Interest
costs of $170,000 were incurred to finance the construction.
Determine the cost of the land and the cost of the building as they should be recorded on the books of
Pollachek Co. Assume that the land survey was for the building.

Haddad Corporation operates a retail computer store. To improve delivery services to customers, the
company purchases four new trucks on April 1, 2010. The terms of acquisition for each truck are described
below.
1. Truck #1 has a list price of $15,000 and is acquired for a cash payment of $13,900.
2. Truck #2 has a list price of $20,000 and is acquired for a down payment of $2,000 cash and a zero-
interest- bearing note with a face amount of $18,000. The note is due April 1, 2011. Haddad would
normally have to pay interest at a rate of 10% for such a borrowing, and the dealership has an
incremental borrowing rate of 8%.
3. Truck #3 has a list price of $16,000. It is acquired in exchange for a computer system that Haddad
carries in inventory. The computer system cost $12,000 and is normally sold by Haddad for $15,200.
Haddad uses a perpetual inventory system.
4. Truck #4 has a list price of $14,000. It is acquired in exchange for 1,000 ordinary shares in Haddad
Corporation. The stock has a par value per share of $10 and a market value of $13 per share.
Prepare the appropriate journal entries for the foregoing transactions for Haddad Corporation. (List multiple

(Capitalization of Interest)
McPherson Furniture Company started construction of a combination office and warehouse building for its own
use at an estimated cost of €5,200,000 on January 1, 2010. McPherson expected to complete the building by
December 31, 2010. McPherson has the following debt obligations outstanding during the construction period.
Construction loan–12% interest, payable semiannually, issued
December 31, 2009 €2,000,000
Short-term loan–10% interest, payable monthly, and principal
payable at maturity on May 30, 2011 1,600,000

year. Principal payable on January 1, 2014 1,000,000

On July 31, 2010, Bismarck Company engaged Duval Tooling Company to construct a special-purpose piece of
factory machinery. Construction was begun immediately and was completed on November 1, 2010. To help
finance construction, on July 31 Bismarck issued a $400,000, 3-year, 12% note payable at Wellington National
Bank, on which interest is payable each July 31. $300,000 of the proceeds of the note was paid to Duval on July
31. The remainder of the proceeds was temporarily invested in short-term marketable securities (trading
securities) at 10% until November 1. On November 1, Bismarck made a final $100,000 payment to Duval.
Other than the note to Wellington, Bismarck's only outstanding liability at December 31, 2010, is a $30,000,

Situation I
On January 1, 2010, Columbia, Inc. signed a fixed-price contract to have Builder Associates construct a
major plant facility at a cost of $4,000,000. It was estimated that it would take 3 years to complete the
project. Also on January 1, 2010, to finance the construction cost, Columbia borrowed $4,000,000 payable in
10 annual installments of $400,000, plus interest at the rate of 10%. During 2010, Columbia made deposit
and progress payments totaling $1,500,000 under the contract; the weighted-average amount of accumulated
expenditures was $900,000 for the year. The excess borrowed funds were invested in short-term securities,
from which Columbia realized investment income of $50,000.
What amount should Columbia report as capitalized interest at December 31, 2010?
$40,000
Situation II
During 2010, Evander Corporation constructed and manufactured certain assets and incurred the following
interest costs in connection with those activities.
Interest Costs

Warehouse constructed for Evander's own use $30,000
Special-order machine for sale to unrelated customer, produced
9,000
according to customer's specifications
Inventories routinely manufactured, produced on a repetitive basis 8,000
All of these assets required an extended period of time for completion.
Assuming the effect of interest capitalization is material, what is the total amount of interest costs to be
capitalized?
$39,000
Situation III
Antonio, Inc. has a fiscal year ending April 30. On May 1, 2010, Antonio borrowed $10,000,000 at 11% to
finance construction of its own building. Repayments of the loan are to commence the month following
completion of the building. During the year ended April 30, 2011, expenditures for the partially completed
structure totaled $6,000,000. These expenditures were incurred evenly throughout the year. Interest earned
on the unexpended portion of the loan amounted to $150,000 for the year.
How much should be shown as capitalized interest on Antonio's financial statements at April 30, 2011?
$180,000
E10-10
Situation I.
$40,000—The requirement is the amount Columbia should report as capitalized interest at 12/31/10. The
amount of interest eligible for capitalization is
Since Columbia has outstanding debt incurred specifically for the construction project, in an amount
greater than the weighted-average accumulated expenditures of $900,000, the interest rate of 10% is used
for capitalization purposes. Therefore, the avoidable interest is $40,000, which is less than the actual
interest, computed as interest on specific borrowing less investment income on those funds:
Situation II.
$39,000—The requirement is total interest costs to be capitalized. IFRS identifies assets which qualify for
interest capitalization: assets constructed for an enterprise’s own use and assets intended for sale or lease
that are produced as discrete projects. Inventories that are routinely produced in large quantities on a
repetitive basis do not qualify for interest capitalization. Therefore, only $30,000 and $9,000 are
capitalized.
Situation III.
$180,000—The requirement is to determine the amount of interest to be capitalized on the financial
statements at April 30, 2011. The IFRS requirements are met: (1) expenditures for the asset have been
made, (2) activities that are necessary to get the asset ready for its intended use are in progress, and (3)
interest cost is being incurred. The amount to be capitalized is determined by applying an interest rate to
the weighted-average amount of accumulated expenditures for the asset during the period. Because the
$6,000,000 of expenditures incurred for the year ended April 30, 2011, were incurred evenly throughout
the year, the weighted-average amount of expenditures for the year is $3,000,000, ($6,000,000 ÷ 2).
Therefore, the amount of interest to be capitalized is $180,000 [($3,000,000 × 11%) – $150,000 (interest
earned)]. In any period the total amount of interest cost to be capitalized shall not exceed the total amount
of interest cost incurred by the enterprise. (Total interest is $1,100,000).
