Bonds Payable: Bonds payable are referred to long-term debts of the business, issued to various lenders known as bondholders, generally in multiples of $1,000 per bond, to raise fund for financing the operations.
Effective-interest method of amortization: It is an amortization model that apportions the amount of bond discount or premium based on the market interest rate.
Present Value: The value of today’s amount expected to be paid or received in the future at a compound interest rate is called as present value.
Determine the issuance price of the bonds.
Step 1: Calculate the cash interest payment for bonds.
Step 2: Calculate the present value of cash interest payment.
Particulars | Amount |
Interest payment (a) | $120,000 |
PV factor at annual market interest rate of 6% for 5 periods (b) | 4.21236 |
Present value | $1,516,450 |
Table (1)
Note: The present value factor for 5 periods at 6% interest would be 4.21236 (Refer Appendix E (Table E.2) in the book for present value factor).
Step 3: Calculate the present value of single principal payment of $4,000,000 (principal amount) at 6% for 5 periods.
Particulars | Amount |
Single principal payment (a) | $4,000,000 |
PV factor at annual market interest rate of 6% for 5 periods (b) | 0.74726 |
Present value | $2,989,040 |
Table (2)
Note: The present value factor for 5 periods at 6% interest would be 0.74726 (Refer Appendix E (Table E.1) in the book for present value factor).
Step 4: Calculate the issue price of the bonds.
Hence, the issuance price of the bonds on January 1 of this Year is $4,505,490.
