Trew Company plans to issue bonds with a face value of $902,000 and a coupon rate of 6 percent. The bonds will mature in 10 year
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

$807,992

Explanation:

issue $902,000 with a 6% semiannual coupon and 10 year maturity. coupon payment = $27,060

if the annual market interest rate = 7.5%, the bonds should be sold at a discount:

issue price = present value of face value + present value of interest payments

  • present value of face value = $902,000 / (1 + 3.75%)²⁰ = $431,961
  • present value of annuity = $27,060 x {1 - [1 / (1 + 3.75%)²⁰]} / 3.75% = $376,031

issue price = $431,961 + $376,031 = $807,992

the journal entry should be:

Dr Cash 807,992

Dr Discount on bonds payable 94,008

    Cr Bonds payable 902,000
