Bonds

Bonds are a kind of interest bearing notes payable, usually issued by companies, universities and governmental organizations. It is a debt instrument used for the purpose of raising fund of the corporations or governmental agencies. If selling price of the bond is equal to its face value, it is called as par on bond. If selling price of the bond is lesser than the face value, it is known as discount on bond. If selling price of the bond is greater than the face value, it is known as premium on bond.

To Calculate: The increase/decrease amount of A’s comprehensive income in the March 31 quarterly financial statement.

Explanation of Solution

Calculate increase/decrease amount of A’s comprehensive income in the March 31 quarterly financial statement.

Particulars	Amount
Interest expense – Net income (1)	$8,284
Add: Unrealized holding loss – Other comprehensive income (OCI) (4)	$10,352
Decrease in comprehensive income	$18,636

Table (1)

Working notes:

Calculate the interest expense on the bond as on March 31, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Interest expense}=\text{Price of bonds}\times \text{Market interest rate}\times \text{Interest time period}\\ =\$331,364\times 10\%\times \frac{3}{12}\\ =\$8,284\end{array}$

Hence, interest expense amount is $8,284.

(1)

Calculate discount on bonds payable on March 31, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Discount on bonds payable }=\text{Interest expense –}\text{Interest payable}\\ =\$8,284-\left(\$400,000\times 8\%\times \frac{3}{12}\right)\\ =\$8,284-\$8,000\\ =\$284\end{array}$

Hence, discount on bonds payable amount is $284.

(2)

Calculate the book value of bonds at March 31, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{l}\text{Book value of bonds }\\ \text{at March 31, 2016 }\end{array})\text{= }\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Book value of bonds at January 1, 2016 }\\ \text{+ Discount on bonds payable on March 31, 2016 }\\ \text{+ Accrued interest payable on March 31, 2016}\end{array}\right)\\ =\$331,364+\$284+\$8,000\\ =\$339,648\end{array}$

Hence, book value of bonds amount is $339,648.

(3)

Calculate the amount of fair value adjustment on March 31, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Fair value adjustment = }\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Book value of bonds at March 31, 2016 }\\ \text{–}\text{Fair value of bonds at March 31, 2016}\end{array}\right)\\ =\$339,648-\$350,000\\ =\$\left(10,352\right)\end{array}$

(4)

Hence, fair value adjustment amount is $10,352.

Conclusion

Therefore, decrease in other comprehensive income amount is $18,636 for March 31 quarterly financial statements.

Working notes:

Calculate the interest expense on the bond as on June 30, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Interest expense}=\text{Price of bonds}\times \text{Market interest rate}\times \text{Interest time period}\\ =\$331,364\times 10\%\times \frac{3}{12}\\ =\$8,284\end{array}$

Hence, interest expense amount is $8,284.

(5)

Calculate discount on bonds payable on June 30, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Discount on bonds payable }=\text{Interest expense + Interest payable –}\text{Cash paid}\\ =\$8,284+\$8,000-\left(\$400,000\times 8\%\times \frac{6}{12}\right)\\ =\$8,284+\$8,000-\$16,000\\ =\$284\end{array}$

Hence, discount on bonds payable amount is $284.

(6)

Calculate the book value of bonds at June 30, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{l}\text{Book value of bonds }\\ \text{at June 30, 20186 }\end{array})\text{= }\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Book value of bonds at March 31, 2016 }\\ \text{+ Discount on bonds payable on June 30, 2016 }\\ \text{– Accrued interest payable on March 31, 2016}\end{array}\right)\\ =\$339,648+\$284-\$8,000\\ =\$331,932\end{array}$

Hence, book value of bonds amount is $331,932.

(7)

Calculate the amount of fair value adjustment on June 30, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Fair value adjustment = }\left(\begin{array}{l}\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Book value of bonds at June 30, 2016 }\\ \text{–Fair value of bonds at June 30, 2016}\end{array}\right)\\ \text{–Fair}\text{value adjustment at March}\text{31,2016}\end{array}\right)\\ =\left(\$331,932-\$340,000\right)-\$\left(10,352\right)\\ =\$2,284\end{array}$

Hence, fair value adjustment amount is $2,284.

(8)

Conclusion

Therefore, decrease in other comprehensive income amount is $6,000 for June 30 quarterly financial statements.

Table (3)

Working notes:

Calculate the interest expense on the bond as on September 30, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Interest expense}=\left(\$331,364+\$284+\$284\right)\times 10\%\times \frac{3}{12}\\ =\$8,298\end{array}$

Hence, interest expense amount is $8,298.

(9)

Calculate discount on bonds payable on September, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\text{Discount on bonds payable }=\text{Interest expense –}\text{Interest payable}\\ =\$8,298-\left(\$400,000\times 8\%\times \frac{3}{12}\right)\\ =\$8,298-\$8,000\\ =\$298\end{array}$

Hence, discount on bonds payable amount is $298.

(10)

Calculate the book value of bonds at September 30, 2016.

$\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{l}\text{Book value of bonds }\\ \text{at September 30, 2016 }\end{array})\text{= }\left(\begin{array}{l}\text{Book value of bonds at June 30, 2016 }\\ \text{+ Discount on bonds payable on September 30, 2016 }\\ \text{+ Accrued interest payable on September 30, 2016}\end{array}\right)\\ =\$331,932+\$298+\$8,000\\ =\$340,230\end{array}$
