You want the actual interest expense for the year. So from 1 June X2 to 30 September X2 the loan was $1M - there will be interest of 8% p.a. for 4 month. From 1 October X2 to 30 June X3 the loan was $750,000 - there will be interest of 8% for 9 months From 1 April X3 to 30 June X3 there is another loan of $500,000 - there will be interest of 7% for 3 months

Good Day John, Thank you for your prompt reply. I am sorry , I still do not get the below calculation. So from 1 June X2 to 30 September X2 the loan was $1M – there will be interest of 8% p.a. for 4 month. why start from 01 june.. and not 1 july thank you

Dear John, Please ignore the earlier reply , I see the point now why we should start on 01 June & not 1 July. But the calculation I got is 74,792 and the nearest answer is 73750. Not exact answer. thanks

The answer is 73750. 1000000 at 8% for 3 months is 20000 750000 at 8% for 9 months is 45000 500000 at 7% for 3 months is 8750
