STEPS IN COMPUTING FOR BORROWING COSTS
1. Compute for the capitalization rate. Future Economic benefits
Capitalization rate= Total borrowing cost 1. Bigger
Total general borrowings 2. Better
2. Compute for the weighted average carrying amount or expenditures. 3.Longer

NOTE: a. entirely new unit is depreciated over its useful life.
The denominator to be used when computing for the weighted average expenditures
would be the date from the beginning of the year up to the end of construction period.
