The amount that should be reported on December 31 as bond liability is $35,883.33.

To calculate the bond liability on December 31:

Calculate the original carrying value:

Face value = $100,000

Stated interest rate = 10%

Maturity = 10 years

Market rate on interest = 10% (on January 1)

Since the market interest rate is equal to the stated interest rate on January 1, the original carrying value is equal to the face value:

Original carrying value = Face value = $100,000

Calculate the change in fair value due to interest rate change:

Market interest rate increase = 11% - 10% = 1%

Bond maturity remaining = 9 years (10 years - 1 year)

Using the present value of an annuity factor, calculate the present value of the remaining interest payments at the new market rate:

Present value of interest payments = Face value * Coupon rate * Present value of an annuity factor for 9 years at 11%

Present value of an annuity factor for 9 years at 11% = 6.495

Present value of interest payments = $100,000 * 0.10 * 6.495 = $64,950

Calculate the change in fair value due to time passage:

Coupon payment = Face value * Coupon rate = $100,000 * 0.10 = $10,000

Interest income accrued = Coupon payment * Time passed = $10,000 * (1 year / 12 months) = $833.33

Calculate the adjusted carrying value:

Adjusted carrying value = Original carrying value + Change in fair value due to interest rate change + Change in fair value due to time passage

Adjusted carrying value = $100,000 - $64,950 + $833.33 = $35,883.33

Therefore, the amount that should be reported on December 31 as bond liability is $35,883.33.
