On January 1, 2020, the company issued $3,000,000, 6% bonds with a 10-year maturity. The bonds were issued to investors that require an effective interest rate of 7%.  The accountant did NOT record the issuance of these bonds.  Interest is paid annually and the accountant did NOT record the interest payment transaction.  The effective interest method is used to amortize any premium or discount. 

NOTE - round calculations to nearest dollar.
