Answer:

$120,820

Explanation:

The calculation of interest capitalized for 2020 is shown below:-

Date                  Expenditure      Weight       Average

02-Jan-20        $607,000           12 ÷ 12        $607,000

01-Sep-20         $1,803,600        4 ÷ 12          $601,200

31-Dec-20          $1,803,600        0 ÷ 12         $-

Accumulated

Expenditures      $4,214,200                          $1,208,200

Interest Capitalized for 2020 = Total Average × Percentage of construction loan

= $1,208,200 × 10%
