to record the sale of bonds

Explanation:

recording the bonds:

acquisition 240

bonds face value (200)

premium 40

It is a premium, as the bonds where purchased at higher price than face value

Interest at December 31th

To calculate the interest, we will calcualte the interest per payment:

7% annual coupon rate /2 payment per year = 3.5% semi-annual rate

5% market rate /2 payment per year = 2.5% semi-annual market rate

cash proceeds: 200 x 3.5% = 7

interest revenue:

carrying value x market rate

240 x 2.5% = 6

amortization 7 - 6 = 1

Value in the balance sheet:

the net value of the bond will be the face value plus the carrying value of the premium

Sale of the bonds:

selling price 250

carrying value of the bonds (239)

gain on sale of bonds 1 1

It is a gain, as the bonds are being sold at a higher price than his carrying value.
