Answer:

FASB ASC 835-20-15-8

Explanation:

This section explicitly states that in order for interests to qualify for interest capitalization, the assets purchased through the loan must be getting ready for its intended use. E.g. if you want to capitalize the interests on the land, you must carry out activities necessary to prepare it for its intended use. Or if you purchase a machinery, you must be installing it in order to get it ready to produce.
