Ok I'm stuck on a very easy problem

Interest Expense=401
Pretax Income=1789
Net Income=930
Capitalized Interest=141
Amortization of Capitalized interest=47

I'm stuck trying to figure out how they got 2237 for EBIT. Assume that the company expensed interest as incurred.

you have the pretax income of 1789 and add the interest expense 401 plus the capitalized interest for the year 1789+401+47=2237

pretax income has had interest expenses deducted already
