KHOUZAM, Judge.

We affirm the issues raised by. the Appellants without comment. However, Owens Law Group, P.A., and Allen Dell, P.A., concede that the trial court miscalculated the interest on the order directing the Guardian to pay them from the restricted depository. The Guardian requested that $20,000 be paid to these creditor Appel-lees. It is unclear from the appellate record how the trial court calculated the interest, but it appears that it used the wrong time period, used an incorrect inter- • est rate, or made a computational error in arriving at a total award of $23,693.53. Accordingly, we reverse the order’s award of interest, and remand to the trial court with directions to recalculate its interest award. See §§ 55.03, 687.01, Fla. Stat. (2013).

Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded.
