Explanation:

We must first determine the market price of the bonds:

PV of face value = $612,000 / (1 + 4.88525%)⁴⁰ = $90,818.5814

PV of coupons = $30,600 x 17.43274 (PV annuity factor, 4.88525%, 40 periods) = $533,441.844

market price = $90,818.5814 + $533,441.844 = $624,260

amortization for first coupon payment:

= ($624,260 x 4.88525%) - ($612,000 x 5%) = $30,496.68194 - $30,600 = $103.31806

amortization for second coupon payment:

= ($624,156.6819 x 4.88525%) - ($612,000 x 5%) = $30,491.6143 - $30,600 = $108.3856955
