| poomie83 | So if a company uses debt to fund a new project is that classified as avoidable interest? And it cant be less than interest from other activities? |
| moneyguy | I think Avoidable Interest = Mkt Interest Rate. Not sure, though. :) |
| robbiecow | The amount of interest that an organization would have avoided if it had not made the expenditures for an asset. Great illustration: http://www.wiley.com/college/kieso/trans/ch10.pdf |

I was very pleased with your notes and question bank. I especially like the mock exams because it helped to pull everything together.
