CA Foundation September and CA Inter May 25 Attempt

 


Interest amount to be capitalized

   
Specific borrowings (₹ 14,00,000 x 12% x 10/12) Less (-) Interest Income 15000 = 1,25,000
Non-specific borrowings    
[₹ 5,00,000 (₹ 15,00,000 – ₹ 10,00,000) x 10.8%* x 10/12] = 45,000
Amount of interest to be capitalized = 1,70,000

Journal Entry for capitalizing cost and borrowing cost 

Date Particulars   Dr. (₹) Cr. (₹)
31.12.2024 building account ( Cost of building ₹ + borrowing x cost ₹ 1,70,000) Dr. 45,70,000  
          To Bank account     45,70,000
  (Being amount of cost of building and borrowing cost thereon capitalized )      

Working notes : 

(i) Computation of average accumulated expenses :

   
₹ 4,00,000 x 10 / 10 = 4,00,000
₹ 10,00,000 x 6 / 10 = 6,00,000
₹ 25,00,000 x 2 / 10 = 5,00,000
₹ 5,00,000 x 0 / 10 = 0
44,00,000 = 15,00,000

(ii) Calculation of average interest rate other than for specific borrowings

Amount of loan (₹) Rate of interest   Amount of interest (₹)
20,00,000 15% = 3,00,000
30,00,000 8% = 2,40,000
50,00,000     5,40,000
Weighted average rate of   = 10.8%
interest (5,40,000/50,00,000 X 100)

"Koncept perfectly justifies what it sounds, i.e, your concepts are meant to be cleared if you are a Konceptian. My experience with Koncept was amazing. The most striking experience that I went through was the the way Yash sir and Ruchika ma'am taught us in the lectures, making it very interesting and lucid. Another great feature of Koncept is that you get mentor calls which I think drives you to stay motivated and be disciplined.
