Answer:

a) issuance of bonds:

Cash/bank $250000

                  Bonds $250000

b) Interest payment

Interest expense  $12500 ($25000×6÷12)

                         cash/bank  $12500

c) Adjusting entry

Interest expense $12500 ($25000×6÷12)

                       cash/bank  $12500

Explanation:

Crane has used bonds as a long-term source of finance. The bonds are redeemable after five years which means Crane will have to create a liability and record cash received. The interest paid each year is coupon rate agreed upon issuance of bonds. Interest is calculated on par value of the bond, therefore the interest payment for the year is $25000 ($250000×10%), payable on a half yearly basis. So the interest payment of $25000 will be split between six months and expense recognized.

The journal entries are as follows:-

a) issuance of bonds:

Cash/bank $250000

                  Bonds $250000

b) Interest payment

Interest expense  $12500 ($25000×6÷12)

                         cash/bank  $12500

c) Adjusting entry

Interest expense $12500 ($25000×6÷12)

                       cash/bank  $12500

Adjusting entries are passed at the year end in order to comply with the accruals concept of accounting which requires entities to recognize expenses and revenues in the year they are incurred and earned. So the remaining interest payment (july to dec) relates to the current financial year and hence entry c (above) is recorded to conclude the financial year.

In my case, I know from experience and heredity that for example my father died of a second heart attack at least partly because of his high cholesterol. The high cholesterol was related to his high metabolism so that he ate a lot of eggs and bacon when young so that probably produced a lot of bad cholesterol. Myself I also have a tendency to high cholesterol and was warned by my dad's doctor to watch it so consequently I mostly avoid dairy products and egg yolk and beef (red meat) and am mostly able to control it that way with diet so haven't had a heart attack yet.
