<u>Solution:</u>

<u>Following is the journal entry for the issuance of bonds on August 1, 2021:</u>

<u>1st August 2021:</u>

Debit: Cash $31,200,000 <u>(Working 1)</u>

Debit: Discount on bonds payable $3,600,000 <u>(Working 3: Note 1)</u>

Credit: Bonds payable $30,000,000

Credit: Equity - stock warrants $4,800,000 <u>(Working 2)</u>

<u>Working 1:</u>

Calculation of cash received:

Cash received = Face value × Issued rate

Cash received = $30,000,000 × 104%

Cash received = $31,200,000

<u></u>

<u>Working 2:</u>

<u>Calculation of amount of equity - stock warrants:</u>

Equity - stock warrants = Market price per warrant × number of warrants × number of bonds

Equity - stock warrants = $8 × 20 warrants × (30,000,000÷ 1,000 bonds)

Equity - stock warrants = $4,800,000

<u>Working 3: </u>

<u>Calculate the discount on bonds payable:</u>

Discount on bonds payable = Bonds payable + Equity stock warrants - Cash received

Discount on bonds payable = $30,000,000 + $4,800,000 - $31,200,000

Discount on bonds payable = $3,600,000

<u>Note 1:</u> Since discount on bonds issues is an expense, therefore, it is debited.

<h3><u>Requirement: 1 (b)</u></h3>

<u>Prepare the journal entries on August 1, 2021, to record the investment by Interstate (I).</u>

<u>Calculate the investment in stock warrants:</u>

Investment in stock warrant = Equity - stock warrant × 20%

Investment in stock warrant = $4,800,000 × 20%

Investment in stock warrant = $960,000

Working 5:

Calculate the amount of investment in bonds:

Investment in bonds = Face value × 20%

Investment in bonds = $30,000,000 × 20%

Investment in bonds = $6,000,000

<u>Working 6:</u>

Calculate the amount of cash paid:

Cash paid = Face value × issued rate × 20%

Cash paid = $30,000,000 × 104% × 20%

Cash paid = $6,240,000

<u>Working 7:</u>

<u>Calculate discount on bond investment:</u>

Discount on bond investment = Investment in stock warrants + Investment in bonds - Cash paid

Discount on bond investment = $960,000 + $6,000,000 - $6,240,000

Discount on bond investment = $720,000

Amount of cash received from the exercise = $60 × 20 warrants × ($30,000,000/$1,000) × 20%

Amount of cash received from the exercise = $7,200,000

<u>Working 9:</u>

<u>Amount of equity - stock warrants from exercise:</u>

Equity - stock warrants = Total equity stock-warrants × 20%

Equity - stock warrants = $4,800,000 × 20%

Equity - stock warrants = $960,000

<u>Working 10:</u>

<u>Amount of common stock:</u>

Amount of common stock = Cash received + equity - stock warrants

Amount of common stock = $7,200,000 + $960,000

<u>Working 13:</u>

<u>Investment in common stock:</u>

<u>Amount of common stock:</u>

Investment in common stock = Cash paid + Investment in stock warrants
