How to see IB commsions before placing a trade?

Is there a way to see commissions when you set order type, time in force and routing?

example i see for US stocks, there is 1$ commission and European stocks $5 i'm being charged after the trade happen. but i want to see it before placing orders. Thank you
 
And if i have 75K in my cash account and i convert my cash account to margin account and borrow another 25k from IB.
How much interest % and what will be the amount that i have to pay back to IB in a IBKR Pro account ?

Commissions are usually estimated, not exact, though this may depend on what you trade and what is your pricing plan.
You can see both the commissions and required margin by clicking on "Advanced" and selecting "Check Margin", in the Order Entry window:

You seemed to have all-in price plan, in that case it is no surprise what the commission will be...

I didn't pick any pricing plan, i find $1 is OK, but European stock commission seems very high ...which plan do you recommend for some buying US and European stocks?

No you have the default plan, but he other plan (there are 2) is cheaper...
