Answer 1

On January 1st, 20x1, Robert Company paid $92,278 for $100,000 of Evergreen Corp.'s 8% bonds that were available for sale. 12% is the market yield. Interest is paid on April 30 and October 31 of each year. Bush is a company with a calendar year. The right response is $4,556,500.

On December 31x1, Fox should declare $4,556,500.

Bonds are currently valued $4,580,000.

$50,000 Bonds are currently valued $4,530,000.

From July 1 to December 31, the discount is amortised over a six-month period: Bonds are currently valued $4,580,000.

$50,000 Bonds are currently valued $4,530,000.

From July 1 to December 31, the discount is amortised over a six-month period: Interest Income = $226.00 ($4,530,00% x 10% x 6/12)

In terms of interest-bearing quantities, $5,000,000 times 8% times six months is $200,000.

Interest revenue less interest due is equal to discounted interest.

Discount amortised is calculated as $226500 less $200000, or $2650.

As a result, $4,530,000 + $26,500 is the total that Fox must declare as of December 31, 2020, multiplied by one.

Thus, On December 31x1, Fox should declare $4,556,500.
