C. Calculation of How much of this is interest expense and how much is actual payment of the loan.

Total Paid: $417,990

Less: Principal Balance: ($300,000)

Amount of Interest Paid: $117,990

a.) The purchase of the building on January 1, 2015 is $300000

b.) The  amount that goes to interest expense is $1750 and $1733.25 goes towards reducing the carrying value.

c.) The total actual payment on this loan is $300000 and the interest expense = $1733.25

a. Asset = Liability + Equity

asset = 360000 building

Liability = 300000

Equity = - 60000

360000 = liability + 60000

Liability = 360000 - 60000

= $300000

The purchase of the building on January 1 2015 is $300000

b. Interest expense calculation

value = 300000

Interest rate = 7%

time =  1 month out of 12 months

Interest = 0.07*300000*1/12

= $1750

The fall in the carrying value

Payment in the month = 3483.25

Interest = $1750

Decrease = 3483.25-1750

= $1733.25

The carrying at Jan 31st

= 300000-1733.25

= $298266.75

Interest = 298266.75*0.07*1/12

= $1739.89

c. Total loan = $417990

Actual payment = 300000

difference = 417990-300000

= $117990

The total actual payment on this loan is $300000 and the interest expense = $1733.25
