Solution
note:
first let us calculate the price of bonds.
=> [ bond interest * relevant present value of annuity factor] + [ bond value * relevant present value factor]
here,
bond interest = $1,850,000 * 10% /
=>$185,000
relevant present value of annuity factor = [1 - (1+r)^(-n) / r]
here,
r = 9% =>0.09.
=>[1 - (1+0.09)^(-10) / 0.09]
=>0.5775892/0.09
=>6.4176578.
bond value = $1,850,000
present value factor = 1 / (1+r)^10
=> 1 / (1.09)^10
=>0.42241081.
now,
issue price of bond
=>[185,000* 6.4176578] + [1,850,000 * 0.42241081]
=>1,187,266.693 + 781,459.9985.
=>1,968,727....(rounded off).
the following is the required journal entry:
| Date | Account tiltes and explanation | Debit | Credit |
| January 1,2016 | Cash a/c | $1,968,727 | |
| ............To Bonds payable a/c | $1,850,000 | ||
| ............To Premium on bonds payable a/c | $118,727 | ||
| (being bonds issued at a premium) |
