E111. Finding the issue price
(AICPA adapted)
We know that the bonds were priced to yield 8% when the contract interest
rate was only 6%. Since the yield is higher than the contract interest rate, we

E113. Finding the discount at Issuance
To find the amount of amortization on July 1, 2014 we first need to know the
book value of the bond on that date. Since this is the first interest payment
date, the beginning-of-period book value is the same as the original issue

E114. Determining a bond’s balance sheet value
(AICPA adapted)
Even though the bonds pay interest only annually on December 31, the
June 30 balance sheet would still need to reflect interest accrued since the
E115. Calculating gain or loss at early retirement
(AICPA adapted)
The gain (or loss) on bond extinguishment can be computed as follows:
Reacquisition price
($1,020,000)
Face value
1,000,000
Unamortized premium
78,000
Book value of bonds 5/1/15
1,078,000
Gain on extinguishment of debt
$58,000
The reacquisition price is the cash paid out by Davis to reacquire its bonds.
Since it is less than the book value of the bonds, the company realizes a gain
on the retirement of its debt.

104,300
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.
E117. Recording loss contingencies
(AICPA adapted)
Brower expects to receive $3.2 million as compensation for the expropriation
E118. 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%)

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.

$5,000,000 = $125 million x 4%
The total book value (including Interest) of the debt on December 31, 2014,
is $130 million, the $125 million borrowed plus the $5 million of interest
owed for July 1 through December 31.
Requirement 2:
There are several reasons a company might want to retire debt early: take
advantage of lower interest rates; postpone scheduled principal repayments;
eliminate a conversion feature attached to the debt; improve the company’s

the present value of the payment stream using a 6% discount rate and
P112. Reporting bonds issued at a discount
Requirement 1:
The issuance price of the bonds on July 1, 2014 is equal to the present value

Present value of the interest payments:
= ($15,000,000 x 0.04) x Present value of an ordinary annuity of $1 to be
received for 20 periods at 5%
= $600,000 x 12.46221 = $7,477,326
