The Cinci Company issues $100,000, 10% bonds at 103 on October 1, 2020. The bonds are
dated January 1, 2020 and mature eight years from that date. Straight-line amortization is used.
Interest is paid annually each December 31. Compute the bond carrying value as of December
31, 2024.

Respuesta :

According to the given values in the question:

The Amortization period is:

= [tex]8 \ years\times 12 \ months[/tex]

= [tex]96 \ months[/tex]

Number of months of Amortization is:

= [tex]3 \ months \ in \ 2020+(4 \ years\times 12 \ months)[/tex]

= [tex]3+48[/tex]

= [tex]51 \ months[/tex]

Now,

On bonds payable, the premium will be:

= [tex]Issue \ price - Face \ value[/tex]

= [tex](100000\times 103 \ percent)- 100000[/tex]

= [tex]103000-100000[/tex]

= [tex]3000[/tex] ($)

The Unamortized premium will be:

= [tex]Premium - Unamortized \ premium[/tex]

= [tex]3000-(3000\times \frac{51}{96} )[/tex]

= [tex]3000-1593.75[/tex]

= [tex]1406.25[/tex] ($)

hence,

The carrying value as of December  31, 2024 will be:

= [tex]100000+1406.25[/tex]

= [tex]101406.25[/tex] ($)
