14-2B (Issuance and Retirement of Bonds) StarCenter Co. Is building a new music arena at a cost of $5,600,000. It received a down payment of $600,000 from local businesses to support the project, and now needs to borrow $5,000,000 to complete the project. It therefore decides to issue $5,000,000 of 8%, 20-year bonds. These bonds were issued on January 1, 2013, and pay interest annually on each January 1. The bonds yield 10%. StarCenter paid $60,000 in bond issue costs related to the bond sale.

there are no requirements, but I assume that they ask about issuance costs and their amortization:

market price of the bonds:

PV of face value = $5,000,000 / (1 + 10%)²⁰ = $743,218

PV of coupon payments = $400,000 x 8.5136 (PV annuity factor, 10%, 20 periods) = $3,405,440

market price = $4,148,658

Dr Cash 4,088,658

Dr Discount on bonds payable 851,342

Dr Bond issue costs 60,000

    Cr Bonds payable 5,000,000

amortization of bond discount and issue costs = ($4,088,658 x 10%) - $400,000 = $8,865.80 ≈ $8,866

allocation to bond issue costs = ($60,000 / $911,342) x $8,866 = $583.71  ≈ $584

allocation to bond discount = $8,866 - $584 = $8,282
