Answer:
$7,500,000 in 8% bonds, 5 years to maturity, semiannual coupon ($300,000)
sold at premium for $7,740,000
the journal entry to record the issuance should be:
Dr Cash 7,740,000
Cr Bonds payable 7,500,000
Cr Bond premium 240,000
<u>Using the straight line amortization:</u>
amortization per coupon payment = $240,000 / 10 coupons = $24,000
Dr Interest expense 276,000
Dr Bond premium 24,000
Cr Cash 300,000
Amount to be credited = $2,020
Outstanding balance = $480
Explanation:
The payment terms state that
- 3% discount may be taken within 10 days of the invoice date (up to May 20); or
- 1% discount may be taken within 15 days of the invoice date (after May 20 but not later than May 25); or
- The net amount is due within 60 days of the invoice date if advantage is not taken of the cash discounts offered.
- The 3% cash discount is not applicable as the payment was made on May 22 which is after the end of the discount period. However, the 1% discount is allowed, since payment on May 22 is within the 15-day period for the 1% discount.
Amount to be credited
= 2000 / (1−0.01)
= 2000 / (0.99)
= $2,020
Outstanding balance
= 2500 - 2020
= $480
