Answer:

The correct option is (b)

Explanation:

Given:

Monthly payment for 6 months = $30 per month

Time period = 6 month (6 periods)

Monthly interest rate = 2%

In order to compute borrowed amount, present value of these payments need to be computed which is an annuity as same amount of $30 is paid.

Checking PVIFA table for 2%, 6 periods, annuity factor is 5.6014.

Borrowed amount = Monthly payment × PVIFA(2%,6)

                            = 30 × 5.6014

                            = $168.042

Borrowed amount is $168.042 or $168.22 approximately (difference in value due to annuity factor being rounded off)

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

$62,445

Explanation:

Discount on bond payable = ($1,000,000 / 100) x (100-97) = 30,000

Number of period = 2 x 10 = 20

Discount amortized every period = 30,000 / 20 = $1,500

Interest Expense on June 30 = (1,000,000 x 6%/2) + 1500 = $31,500

Principal Payment = $50,000 - $31,500 = $18,500

Outstanding bonds = 1,000,000 - $18,500 = $981,500

Interest Expense on December 31 = ($981,500 x 6%/2) + 1500 = $30,945

Total Interest Expense in 2020 = $31,500 + $30,945 = $62,445
