signing of long-term notes and mortgages.
(b) A bond indenture is a contractual agreement (signed by the issuer of bonds) between the
2. If the entire bond matures on a single date, the bonds are referred to as term bonds. Mortgage
bonds are secured by real estate. Collateral trust bonds are secured by the securities of other
corporations. Debenture bonds are unsecured. The interest payments for income bonds depend on
the existence of operating income for the issuing company. Callable bonds may be called and
3. (a) Yield rate—the rate of interest actually earned by the bondholders; it is synonymous with the
effective and market rates.
4. (a) Maturity value—the face value of the bonds; the amount which is payable upon maturity.
(b) Face value—synonymous with par value and maturity value.
Questions Chapter 14 (Continued)
5. A discount on bonds payable results when investors demand a rate of interest higher than the rate
stated on the bonds. The investors are not satisfied with the nominal interest rate because they
can earn a greater rate on alternative investments of equal risk. They refuse to pay par for the
6. The amortization of a bond premium decreases interest expense while the amortization of a bond
discount increases interest expense over the life of a bond.

7. Bond discount and bond premium are amortized on an effective-interest basis. The effective-
interest method results in an increasing or decreasing amount of interest each period. This is
8. The annual interest expense will decrease each period throughout the life of the bonds. Under the
effective-interest method the interest expense each period is equal to the effective or yield interest
9. Bond issuance costs should be recorded as a reduction to the issue amount of the bond payable
and amortized into expense over the life of the bond, through an adjustment to the effective-
interest rate.

10. Amortization of bond discount will increase interest expense. A discount on bonds payable results
when investors demand a rate of interest higher than the rate stated on the bonds. The investors
11. The entire arrangement must be evaluated and an appropriate interest rate imputed. This is done
by (1) determining the fair value of the property, goods, or services exchanged or (2) determining
12. If a note is issued for cash, the present value is assumed to be the cash proceeds. If a note is
issued for noncash consideration, the present value of the note should be measured by the fair

13. When a debt instrument is exchanged in a bargained transaction entered into at arm’s length, the
stated interest rate is presumed to be fair unless: (1) no interest rate is stated, or (2) the stated
14. Imputed interest is the interest factor (a rate or amount) assumed or assigned which is different
from the stated interest factor. It is necessary to impute an interest rate when the stated interest
rate is presumed to be unreasonable. The imputed interest rate is used to establish the present
15. A fixed-rate mortgage is a note that requires payment of interest by the mortgagor at a rate that
does not change during the life of the note. A variable-rate mortgage is a note that features an
16. Three different types of situations result with extinguishments (1) Settlement in cash;
(2) Exchanging assets or securities; and (3) Modification of terms.

17. The call feature of a bond issue grants the issuer the privilege of purchasing, after a certain date
at a stated price, outstanding bonds for the purpose of reducing indebtedness or taking advantage
18. It is sometimes desirable to reduce bond indebtedness in order to take advantage of lower
prevailing interest rates. Also, the company may not want to make a very large cash outlay all at
once when the bonds mature.
Questions Chapter 14 (Continued)
19. A transfer of noncash assets (real estate, receivables, or other assets) or the issuance of the
debtor’s stock can be used to settle a debt obligation in an extinguishment. In these situations, the
20. (a) The creditor will grant concessions in debt modification situation because it appears to be
the more likely way to ensure the highest possible collection on the loan.
(b) The creditor might grant the debtor any one or a combination of the following concessions:
1. Reduce the face amount of the debt.
21. The debtor will record a gain when the discounted restructured cash flows are less than the
22. The fair value option gives companies the choice to record their non-current liabilities at fair value.
The controversy in applying the fair value option involves companies recording an unrealized gain

not recorded. Reasons for off-balance-sheet financing are:
Questions Chapter 14 (Continued)
26. Forms of off-balance-sheet financing include (1) investments in non-consolidated subsidiaries for
27. Under IFRS, a parent company does not have to consolidate a subsidiary company that is less
than 50 percent owned. In such cases, the parent therefore does not report the assets and
liabilities of the subsidiary. All the parent reports on its statement of financial position is the
investment in the subsidiary. As a result, users of the financial statements may not understand
that the subsidiary has considerable debt for which the parent may ultimately be liable if the
