      Question

      If interest is capitalized during a period where

      construction was intentionally suspended due to a labor strike, that interest should be:
      A Continued to be capitalized. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Ignored. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Charged to the P&L as an expense. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Added to Preliminary Expenses. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Deducted from Equity. Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Capitalization is suspended during periods in which active development is interrupted. While short, necessary interruptions (e.g., waiting for materials, normal weather delays) do not stop capitalization, an intentional suspension due to a labor strike represents a halt in active development, meaning the interest accrued during that period must be recognized as an expense in the Profit & Loss statement.
