Answer and Explanation:

Reported amount as of 1, January 2018 after bonds were issued is as below

                                       CASE A             CASE B             CASE C

                                       Issued at 100    Issued at 95     issued at 103

a. Bonds Payable           $130,000          $130,000          $130,000

b. Discount Premium     $0                      $6,500              $3,900

                                                                  Discount            Premium

                                                                  130,000×(100    130,000×(100-

                                                                   -95)⁰/₀                103)⁰/₀

c. Carrying value             $130,000          $123,500           $133,900

payable bonds would be the maturity amount or face value of bonds. The bonds payable would remain same, that is, $130,000 in each case.

In case B, the discount is calculated because the bonds are issued at a price which is less than the face value

in case C, The premium is calculated when the bond are issued at a price that is more than the face value

Carrying value will be calculated by deducting the discount from the bond s payable or by adding the premium in the bonds payable
