    I will pay $537.43 as interest.

    Explanation:

    Principal amount = F = $70,000

    Effective rate = 6.3% / 12 = 0.525% monthly

    t = 2 months

    Interest Amount for 2 months = [2x (r x F) / 1 - (1 + r) ^-t] = [2 x (0.525% x 70,000) / 1 - (1 + 0.525%) ^-2 = $735 / 0.01042 = $70537.43

    Interest Amount = $70537.43 - 70,000 = $537.43

    Interest payment of two month margin loan for amount $70,000 at effective rate 6.3% is $537.43.
