Amounts designated in the mortgage agreement as interest shall be charged to income in the period in which the interest is incurred. If the loan's stated interest rate varies based on changes in an independent factor, such as an index or rate (for example, the prime rate, the London Interbank Offered Rate \[LIBOR\], or the U.S. Treasury bill weekly average rate), the calculation of the interest shall be based on the factor (the index or the rate) as it changes over the life of the loan. Interest recognized pursuant to this guidance is subject to the requirements of Subtopic 835-20. Once capitalized, amounts shall not be adjusted for the effects of reversals of appreciation.
