March 31, 2022:
Debit Bond Liability $2,247,000
Debit Interest Payable $42,000
Credit Cash $2,289,000
To record the recall of the bonds, including accrued interest.
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
January 2, 2019: Face value of bonds issued = $2,100,000
Proceeds from the issue of the bonds at 98 = 2,058,000
Discount from the issue = $42,000
Semi-annual amortization under straight-line = $2,100 ($42,000/20)
Coupon interest rate = 8% with payment made semiannually
Annual interest payment = $168,000 ($2,100,000 * 8%)
Semiannual interest payment = $84,000 ($2,100,000 * 4%)
Bonds duration = 10 years
March 31, 2022 Recall price of 107 = $2,247,000
Accrued interest from January 1 to March 31 = $42,000
Total payment to bondholders = $2,289,000
