Explanation:

There is some information missing that I looked up, hopefully the numbers are the same, but if not you can adjust them.

Weighted average expenditures:

July 1, 2015, $54  million

October 1, 2015, $22  million

February 1, 2016, $30  million

April 1, 2016, $21 million

September 1, 2016, $20  million

October 1, 2016, $6 million

[($54 x 6/6) + ($22 x 3/6)] x 6% / 6/12 = $1.95 million
