a. Amortization Table

Date                                                 Interest        Discount

                            Cash Payment   Expense   Amortization   Carrying Value

January 1, 2016                                                                            $57,639

December 31, 2016    $6,820         $7,493           $673               58,312

December 31, 2017      6,820            7,581               761              59,073

December 31, 2018      6,820           7,679              859             59,932

December 31, 2019     6,820            7,791               971              60,903

December 31, 2020    6,820            7,917            1,097             62,000

= $7,791.

d. The amount of cash outflow for interest that would appear in the operating activities section of the 2019 statement of cash flows is:

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Face value of bonds =      $62,000

Proceeds from the issue = 57,639

Bonds discount =                $4,361

Stated rate of interest = 11% paid annually on December 31

Effective rate of interest = 13%

December 31, 2016:

Interest expense =      $7,493 ($57,639 * 13%)

Interest payable =       $6,820 ($62,000 * 11%)

Discount amortization    $673 ($7,493 - $6,820)

Bond value = $58,312 ($57,639 + $672)

December 31, 2017:

Interest expense =     $7,581 ($58,312 * 13%)

Interest payable        $6,820 ($62,000 * 11%)

Discount amortization   $761 ($7,581 - $6,820)

Bond value = $59,073  ($58,312 + $761)

December 31, 2018:

Interest expense =     $7,679 ($59,073 * 13%)

Interest payable        $6,820 ($62,000 * 11%)

Discount amortization $859 ($7,679 - $6,820)

Bond value = $59,932 ($59,073 + $859)

December 31, 2019:

Interest expense =     $7,791 ($59,932 * 13%)

Interest payable        $6,820 ($62,000 * 11%)

Discount amortization  $971 ($7,791 - $6,820)

Bond value = $60,903 ($59,932 + $971)

December 31, 2020:

Interest expense =         $7,917 ($60,903 * 13%)

Interest payable           $6,820 ($62,000 * 11%)

Discount amortization  $1,097 ($7,917 - $6,820)

Bond value = $62,000 ($60,903 + $1,097)
