Answer:

1.

$7,250

2.

$284,562.5

3.

Dr. Bond Payable          $290,000

Dr. Loss on Retirement $18,487.5

Cr. Bond Discount         $5,437.5

Cr. Cash                         $303,050

Explanation:

1.

Bond is issued on the discount when it is issued below the face value.

Discount value = Face value - Issuance value = $290,000 - $282,750 = $7,250

2.

Carrying value of the bond is the net of face value of the bond and un-amortised bond discount.

Carrying value = 290,000 - ($7,250 x (20-5) / 20) = $284,562.5

3.

Bond Discount = $7,250 x 15/20 = $5,437.5
