23) Hurst, Incorporated sold its 8% bonds with a maturity value of $6,000,000 on
August 1, 2013 for $5,892,000. At the time of the sale the bonds had 5 years until they
reached maturity. Interest on the bonds is payable semiannually on August 1 and
February 1 . The bonds are callable at 104 at any time after August 1, 2015 . By
October 1, 2015, the market rate of interest has declined and the market price of Hurst’s
bonds has risen to a price of 101 . The firm decides to refund the bonds by selling a new

market and is able to purchase $1,000,000 worth at 101 . The remainder of the
outstanding bonds is reacquired by exercising the bonds’ call feature. In the final
