To determine

Bonds of affiliate purchased from non-affiliate: When an affiliate of issuer later acquires bonds form unrelated party, the bonds are retired at the time of purchase. The bonds are not held outside the consolidated entity once another company within the consolidated entity purchases them, it must be treated as repurchase by debtor. Acquisition of an affiliate’s bonds by another company with in affiliated entities is referred as constructive retirement. Although bonds are not actually retired.

A parent company buys bonds on the open market that had been previously issued by its subsidiary. The price paid by the parent is less than the carrying amount of the bonds on the subsidiary’s records. How should the parent report the difference between the price paid and the carrying amount of the bonds on its consolidated financial statements? As a loss on retirement of the bonds. As a gain on retirement of the bonds. As an increase to interest expense over the remaining life of the bonds. Because the bonds now represent intra-entity debt, the difference is not reported.
A parent business purchases bonds on the open market that had previously been issued by a subsidiary of the parent firm. Consequently, the price paid by the parent is less than the amount of bonds that are currently recorded on the subsid- iary's books. When it comes to reporting the difference between the price paid and the carrying amount of the bonds, how should the parent report it on its consolidated financial statements?
