Payment of interest on expenses

A person who is obliged to reimburse expenses is to pay interest on the amount expended from the date of the expense onwards or, if other objects than money have been expended, on the amount payable as compensation for their value. Where expenses have been incurred on an object that is to be returned to the person liable in damages, interest need not be paid for the period of time for which the person entitled to damages is unremunerated for the emoluments or fruits of the object.
