Answer:

Ethan Corporation

Using the effective-interest method of amortization, the amount of interest expense that should be reported for 2020 is:

= $449,096

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Face value of bonds issued = $4,000,000

Issue price of the bonds =         4,498,490

Premium on the bonds =            $498,490 ($4,498,490 - $4,000,000)

Coupon interest rate = 12%

Effective interest rate = 10%

Interest payments = June 30 and December 31

June 30:

Cash payment for bond interest = $240,000 ($4,000,000 * 6%)

Interest expense =                            224,925 ($4,498,490 * 5%)

Amortization of bond premium =      $15,075 ($240,000 - $224,925)

Bonds value = $4,483,415 ($4,498,490 - $15,075)

December 31:

Cash payment for bond interest = $240,000 ($4,000,000 * 6%)

Interest expense =                              224,171 ($4,483,415 * 5%)

Amortization of bond premium =      $15,829 ($240,000 - $224,171)

Bonds value = $4,467,586 ($4,483,415 - $15,829)

Interest expense for 2020 = $449,096 ($224,925 + $224,171)

Vital Silence Corp. has just issued a 30-year callable, convertible bond with a coupon rate of 6.4 percent and annual coupon pay
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

a. $880.74

b. 13 years

Explanation:

a.  Conversion ratio = Current Value of bond / Conversion price  = 1,000 / 93.4 = 10.71

Conversion price of bond = 10.71 × 28.60  = $306.31

Coupon = Par value of bond * Coupon rate  = $1,000 * 6.4% = $64

Present value of straight debt is calculated below:

Present Value = $64 × [1-(1+7.4%)^-30 / 7.4%] + [$1,000 / (1+7.4%)^30]

= $64*11.93 + $117.46

= $763.28 + $117.46

= $880.74 .

Therefore, the minimum value of bond is $880.74

b. Conversion ratio = 10.71

Current stock price = $28.6

Suppose number of year the stock will take to reach above $1,140 is t.

Conversion value = Current stock price * Conversion ratio*(1+10.8%)^t

$1,140 = $28.6 * 10.71 * (1.108)^t

(1.108)^t = 3.7218

t = 12.8145 year.

t = 13 years
