To record the recall of the bonds, including accrued interest.

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

January 2, 2019: Face value of bonds issued = $2,100,000

Proceeds from the issue of the bonds at 98 =    2,058,000

Discount from the issue =                                        $42,000

Semi-annual amortization under straight-line = $2,100 ($42,000/20)

Coupon interest rate = 8% with payment made semiannually

Annual interest payment = $168,000 ($2,100,000 * 8%)

Semiannual interest payment = $84,000 ($2,100,000 * 4%)

Bonds duration = 10 years

March 31, 2022 Recall price of 107 = $2,247,000

Accrued interest from January 1 to March 31 = $42,000

Total payment to bondholders = $2,289,000
