Sample Problem
On January 1, 20x1, Entity A had the following general borrowings. A part of the proceeds was used to
finance the construction of a qualifying asset:
Principal
12% bank loan (1.5 years) ₱ 1,000,000
10% bank loan (3-year) 8,000,000
• Actual Interest
1M x 12% 120,000
8M x 10% 800,000
Total 920,000
Solution
3. Qualifying assets financed through both Specific & General borrowing
General Borrowing:
Average expenditures xx
Less: Specific borrowing xx
Expenditures financed by general borrowing xx
Multiply by: Capitalization rate %
Borrowing cost from general borrowing xx
Total ₱ xx
Again, the amount computed in the formula is compared with the actual borrowing costs incurred during the period. The
borrowing cost to be capitalized is the lower amount.
General Borrowing:
Average expenditures xx
Multiply by: Capitalization rate %
Borrowing cost from general borrowing xx
Total ₱ xx
Again, the amount computed in the formula is compared with the actual borrowing costs incurred during
the period. The borrowing cost to be capitalized is the lower amount.
