          To Bonds payable                                           $20,225,000

(Being Bonds issued is recorded)

Working Note:-

Cash = ($20,225,000 × (97 ÷ 100)

=  $19,618,250

So, the bonds has been issued a discount. The par value of the bonds is 100.

2. Cash Dr,                                                $19,416,000

          To Paid in capital share warrants                   $1,011,250

(Being bonds issued is recorded)

Working Note:-

The Value of bonds issued at a discount

So, value of bonds = ($20,225,000 × ($96 ÷ $100)

= $19,416,000

Now, Value of warrants = ($20,225,000 ÷ 100) × $5

= $1,011,250

Total value of bonds including warrants = Value of bonds + Value of warrants

= $19,416,000 + $1,011,250

= $21,236,250
