    The interest expense is $521

    Explanation:

    The amount of interest expense for the fiscal year is the interest expense of 31 days which, in other words the interest incurred only in the month of July, calculated thus:

    interest expense=days in the month/360days*interest rate*loan amount

    interest expense=31/360*10%*$60,500=$ 521

    The interest expense for the current fiscal year rounded to the nearest dollar amount is $ 521
