We study the entropy of non-supersymmetric extremal black holes which exhibitattractor mechanism by making use of the entropy function. This method, beingsimple, can be used to calculate corrections to the entropy due to higher ordercorrections to the action. In particular we apply this method for fivedimensional non-supersymmetric extremal black hole which carries two magneticcharges and find the R^2 corrections to the entropy. Using the behavior of theaction evaluated for the extremal black hole near the horizon, we also presenta simple expression for C-function corrected by higher order corrections.Comment: 15 pages, Latex file, v2: references and some additional comments added, minor corrections, some comments about 5D supersymmetric BH added. v3:minor corrections, few comments added, refs. adde
