Answer:

D. $30,000

Explanation:

The bond is issued on discount when the issuance price is less than the face value of the bond. The discount is expensed over the bond period until maturity. It is added to the interest expense value to expense it.

This discount will be amortized using Effective Interest method as below

Interest Payment = $5,000,000 x 8% x 6/12 = $200,000

Interest Expense = $4,600,000 x 10% x 6/12 = $230,000

Discount amortization = $230,000 - $200,000 = $30,000

Delicious77 [7]

That companies gain a competitive advantage by giving customers focus, cost leadership, and differentiation

<h3>What is competitive advantage?</h3>

A firm seeks a competitive advantage when it aims to surpass its rivals in terms of profitability. An organization must be able to communicate to its chosen target market that it has a higher comparative or differential value than its rivals in order to establish and retain a competitive advantage. For instance, a business is likely to have a competitive advantage if it advertises a product at a lower price than a similar product from a rival. The same holds true if the marketed item is more expensive but has special characteristics that buyers are ready to pay for.

The SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats) analytical technique is credited to Albert Humphrey at the Stanford Research Institute. Porter's Five Forces is an alternative model that helps businesses understand their position within a competitive landscape.
