Answer:

1.$62,748

2. $31,752

Explanation:

The computation of End of fiscal year and current fiscal year is given below:-

End of fiscal year = Borrowed amount × Interest rate × one month ÷ Total number of months

= $630,000 × 12% × 1 ÷ 12

= $630,000 × 12% × 0.083

= $62,748

Current fiscal year = Paid back amount × Interest rate × Four month ÷ Total number of months

= $630,000 × 12% × 5 ÷ 12

= $630,000 × 12% × 0.42

= $31,752

So, we applied the above formula.
