1. Interest bearing: principal – lump sum, interest – annual; effective rate higher than the nominal rate

Diaz Company constructed for Cruz Distributors a warehouse that was completed and ready for
occupancy on January 1, 2019. Cruz paid for the warehouse by issuing a P1,000,000 four–year note
that required 7% interest to be paid on December 31 of each year. The warehouse was custom–built for

an appropriate interest rate was 10%.
