To record the second interest payment and amortization of bonds premium.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Face value of 12% bonds = $2,500,000

Proceeds from bonds issue 2,928,977

Premium = $428,977

Coupon rate = 12%

Market yield rate = 10%

June 30:

Cash payment = $150,000 ($2,500,000 * 6%)

Interest expense $146,449 ($2,928,977 * 5%)

Amortized Premium 3,551 ($150,000 - $146,449)

Bonds value = $2,925,426 ($2,928,977 - $3,551)

December 31:

Cash Payment = $150,000 ($2,500,000 * 6%)

Interest expense $146,271 ($2,925,426)

Amortized premium 3,729 ($150,000 - $146,271)

Bonds value = $2,921,697 ($2,925,426 - $3,729)
