Question

D, Inc., issued $ 20,000,000. of bonds, which have a ten year term and a contract or payment interest rate of  6% annually (though interest is paid semiannually) with the issuance on 3/1/2018.  These bonds were issued for an effective interest rate or a market rate yield of 7% annually, at an original issue price of $ 18,578,760.  Since bond interest on these bonds is paid semiannually,  the first payment is made on 9/1/2018. 

What is the cash paid to the bondholders on 9/1/2018?  What is the corporation’s interest expense on 9/1/2018?  What is the carrying value of the bonds on 9/2/2018?
