    Answer:a $600,000

    Explanation:

    The home mortgage interest is based on the amount of mortgage loan outstanding at year end

    The loan outstanding for mortgage was N600,000 and this is what the interest will be charged on for the mortgage loan interest deduction.

    The N1 million loan obtained to refinance does not have relevance on the mortgage interest deduction.
