Cash Premium on Bonds Payable Bonds PayableExplanation / Answer
Solution 1:
Solution 2:
Solution 3:
Total interest expense for year 1 = $5,256,431
Solution 5:
Bond issue price = Present value of interest and principal discounted at market rate of interest i.e. 12%
Semiannual market rate of interest = 6%
Coupon rate semi annual = 6.50%
Period of maturity = 10 years, 20 semiannual period
Present value of semiannual interest payment = ($84,600,000 * 6.50%) * Cumulative PV factor at 6% for 20 periods
= $5,499,000 * 11.46992 = $63,073,090
Present value of face amount = $84,600,000 * PV factor at 6% for 20th period
= $84,600,000 * 0.311805 = $26,378,680
Price received for bonds = $63,073,097 + $26,378,680 = $89,451,777
