Explanation / Answer

Answer a Bonds were issued at discount. Answer b The amortization schedule is based on the effective interest method. Answer c Stated Interest rate = (Yearly Cash Payment / Bond par value ) * 100 = ($21010/$210100)*100 = 10% The effective Rate = [Interest expense for 2011 / Beginning Carrying value of bond 2011]*100 = [$23607 / $157377]*100 = 15% Answer d Journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds on January 1, 2011 Date Account Titles and Explanation Debit Credit Jan.1,2011 Cash $157,377 Discount on Bonds Payable $52,723 Bonds Payable $210,100 Answer e Journal entry to record the interest accrual on Dec.31,2011 Date Account Titles and Explanation Debit Credit Dec.31,2011 Interest Expense $23,607 Discount on Bonds Payable $2,597 Interest Payable $21,010 Answer f Journal entry to record the bond transactions for 2018 Date Account Titles and Explanation Debit Credit January 1,2018 Interest Payable $21,010 Cash $21,010 Dec.31,2018 Interest Expense $27,917 Discount on Bonds Payable $6,907 Interest Payable $21,010
