Answer:

cash                                       67,962,962 debit

discount on bonds payable 12,037,037  debit

      bonds payable 80,000,000 credit

--to record bonds issuance-----

interest expense 4,077,777.75

amortization                        77, 777.75

cash                          4,000,000

-- to record June 30th payment--

interest expense 4082,444.42

amortization                   82,444.42

cash                      4,000,000

-- to record December 31th payment--

Explanation:

The present value of the bond will be the sum of the present value of the coupon payment at market rate:

[tex]C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\[/tex]

C 4,000,000 (80,000,000x 10%/2)

time 40 (20 years x 2 payment per eyar)

rate           0.06 (12% market rate / 2)

[tex]4000000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-40} }{0.06} = PV\\[/tex]

PV $60,185,187.4861

And the present value of the maturity at market rate as well:

[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]  

Maturity   80,000,000.00

time   40

rate  0.06

[tex]\frac{80000000}{(1 + 0.06)^{40} } = PV[/tex]  

PV   7,777,775.02

PV c $60,185,187.4861

PV m  $7,777,775.0167

Total $67,962,962.5028

first period

Then the interest expense will be:

67,962,962  x 0.06 = 4.077.777,72‬

cash proceeds:                   ( 4,000,000)

amortization                                 77,777.72

for the second period:

carrying value:

67,962,962 + 77,777.72 = 68,040,740

interest expense

68,040,740  x 0.06 =  4,082,444.42

cash proceeds            4,000,000

amortization                      82444.42
