11-4
The carrying (or book) value of the bond on June 30, 2015, is $104,300. We
know that the face value of the bond is $100,000 and the book value is
$104,300; the difference between the face value and book value of the bond
must be the unamortized premium. So Webb should report $4,300 of
unamortized premium in its June 30, 2015, balance sheet.

E11–8. Zero coupon bond
Requirement 1:
These bonds have a face value of $250 million, a zero coupon rate, a
market yield rate of 12%, and mature in 20 years. The issue price is:
Present value of principal
($250 million at 12% for 20 periods)
Present value of interest payment
(Annuity of zero for 20 periods at 12%)
Bond issue price 1/1/14
(Present value of the bond)
Alternatively, using PV tables: $250 million x 10.367 = $25,917,500
If the market interest rate is instead 12% semi-annually (6% each period for
40 periods), then the bond issue price would be $24,305,547.
