On January 1, 2012 Johnson Company issued bonds with a face value of $750,000. The bonds carry an interest rate of 8% payable ea
katrin [286]

Answer:

a.

January 1    Cash                                          720000 Dr

                   Discount on Bonds Payable    30000 Dr

                            Bonds Payable                        750000 Cr

b.

January 1    Cash                                          772500 Dr

                             Bonds Payable                        750000 Cr

                             Premium on Bonds Payable  22500 Cr

Explanation:

a.

When the bonds are issued at 96, this means that they are issued at 96% of the face value of the bond which is 750000 * 0.96 = 720000

So, the cash received from issuing the bonds is 720000. As the face value of the bonds is 750000 which will be recorded as bonds payable, the difference between the cash received and the face value is the discount amount which will be debited.

b.

When the bonds are issued at 103, this means that they are issued at 103% of the face value of the bond which is 750000 * 1.03 = 772500

So, the cash received from issuing the bonds is 772500. As the face value of the bonds is 750000 which will be recorded as bonds payable, the difference between the cash received and the face value is the premium amount which will be credited.
