The expenditures for construction were as follows: January 1, $500,000, March 31, $600,000, June 30, $400,000: October 30, $600,000. The company arranged a 7% loan on January 1 for $700,000. Assume the $700,000 loan is not specifically tied to the construction of the building. The company's other borrowings, outstanding for the whole year, consisted of a $3 million loan and a $5 million note with interest rates of 8% and 6%, respectively Assuming the company uses the weighted average method, calculate the amount of interest capitalized for the year.
