(B) Prepare the journal entry (or entries) to record the first interest payment on Dec. 31, 2025 and the amortization of premium/discount using: (1) the straight-line method, and (2) the effective interest-rate method. (C) Prepare the journal entry to record the early retirement on June 30, 2026 of $40,000 face value (40%) of the bonds at a cash price of 101.
