The information and answer is given in the images. I just need to know how they calculated imputed interest on housing loan 170.

Just need to know the steps. Thanks

Malachi had $36,000 for a down payment on his new Ottawa home. Since
he had no previous work experience, the banks were reluctant to provide
him a mortgage at favourable terms. His employer stepped in and agreed
to give him an interest free housing loan of $200,000 beginning on
December 1, 2021. Malachi agreed to reduce his salary slightly with
respect to this benefit. The loan requires annual payments of $7,600 due at
the end of November beginning in 2022. The loan is required to be paid if
Malachi dies, sells the home, or terminates his employment. Assume that
the prescribed interest rates for such benefits are 2% in each of the first
two quarters of 2021 and 1% in the third and fourth quarters.
