- Which statement is correct when the effective-interest method is used to amortize bond premium or discount? Group of answer choices The interest expense increases each period if the bonds were issued at a premium. The carrying amount at the end of the first year would be highest if the bonds were issued at a discount. The periodic amortization will increase regardless of whether the bonds were issued at either a discount or a premium. The periodic amortization will increase or decrease depending on whether the bonds were issued at a premium or at a discount.arrow_forwardEros Corp. decided to go into the market to repurchase bonds before their due date. The bonds had a maturity value of $3,500,000. On the date of retirement, the balance on the Discount on Bonds Payable account was $54,700.

- Suppose you are a bond dealer looking for arbitrage opportunities. The first column in the table below shows the current prices of the four government bonds (without default risk). Assume that you can buy and short these bonds at a given price. The remaining columns of the table are the cash flows generated by the bonds at the end of the first, second and third years. All bonds mature at the end of the third year. Are there arbitrage opportunities for the prices of these four types of bonds? If it exists, how can you seize this opportunity?arrow_forwardAI Tool and Dye issued 8% bonds with a face amount of $160 million on January 1, 2021. The bonds sold for $150 million. For bonds of similar risk and maturity the market yield was 9%. Upon issuance, AI elected the option to report these bonds at their fair value. On June 30, 2021, the fair value of the bonds was $145 million as determined by their market value on the NASDAQ. Will AI report a gain or will it report a loss when adjusting the bonds to fair value? If the change in fair value is attributable to a change in the interest rate, did the rate increase or decrease? Will the gain or loss be reported in net income or as OCI?arrow_forwardKasey Hartman is the controller for Wholemart Company, which has numerous long-term investments in debt securities. Wholemart’s investments are mainly in five-year bonds. Hartman is preparing its year-end financial statements. In accounting for long-term debt securities, she knows that each long-term investment must be designated as a held-to-maturity or an available-for-sale security. Interest rates rose sharply this past year, causing the portfolio’s fair value to substantially decline. The company does not intend to hold the bonds for the entire five years. Hartman also earns a bonus each year, which is computed as a percent of net income. Required 1. Will Hartman’s bonus depend in any way on the classification of the debt securities? Explain. 2. What criteria must Hartman use to classify the securities as held-to-maturity or available-for-sale? 3. Is there likely any company oversight of Hartman’s classification of the securities? Explain.arrow_forward
- On January 1, 2023, Larkspur Corporation purchased a newly issued $1,500,000 bond. The bond matured on December 31, 2025, and paid interest at 6% every June 30 and December 31. The market interest rate was 8%. Larkspur's fiscal year-end is October 31, and the company had the intention and ability to hold the bond until its maturity date.

- One way for a corporation to accomplish long-term financing is through the issuance of long-term debt instruments in the form of bonds. Required: 1. Explain how to account for the proceeds from bonds issued with detachable stock purchase warrants. 2. Contrast a serial bond with a term (straight) bond. 3. For a 5-year term bond issued at a premium, why is the amortization in the first year of the life of the bond different using the interest method of amortization as opposed to the straight-line method? Include in your discussion whether the amount of amortization in the first year of the life of the bond is higher or lower using the interest method as opposed to the straight-line method. 4. When a company sells a bond issue between interest dates at a discount, what journal entry does it make, and how is the subsequent amortization of bond discount affected? Include in your discussion an explanation of how the amounts of each debit and credit are determined. 5. Explain how to account for and classify the gain or loss from the reacquisition of a long-term bond prior to its maturity.arrow_forwardYou are the controller for a corporation which owns several investments in debt securities, mainly in 10-year bonds. You know that each long-term investment must be classified as either a held-to-maturity or an available-for-sale security. This current year, market interest rates for similar bonds rose sharply, which caused the fair market value of the portfolio to decline substantially. You also know that the corporation does not intent to hold the 10-year bonds it currently owns to maturity. Additionally, each year you earn a bonus which is based on a percentage of net income.
