Answer:

Dr Cash $1,400,000

Cr Notes payable $1,400,00

Dr Cash $901,152

Cr premium on bonds payable $37,152

Cr bonds payable $864,000

Dr cash $325,710

Dr discount on bonds payable $3,290

Cr bonds payable $329,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The cash proceeds from the first bond is $ 1,400,000 ($1000*1400),hence the entries would be to debit cash account with $1,400,000 and credit notes payable with same amount.

The cash from the second bond is $ 901,152 ($864,000*104.3%),which implies that the bond was issued at a premium $ 37,152 ($901,152-$864,000) .

The third bond gave a cash inflow of $ 325,710 ($329,000*99%),which means a discount on bonds payable of $ 3,290 was recorded.
