Issue of bond at premium:
When the coupon rate or contract rate of a bond is higher than the market interest rate, the bond is being issued at premium. If the bond is issued at premium, the selling price of the bond will be higher than the face value of the bond.
Effective interest method:
Effective interest method aims at computing an accurate interest expense. In case of issue of bonds on premium, the carrying value of the bonds payable inclusive of premium amortized is used to determine the interest expense during a particular period. Hence the interest expense decreases as the carrying value of the bonds decrease.
To determine:
1. Prepare
2. Compute the total bond interest expense to be recognized over the bonds’ life.
3. Preparation of amortization table for first two year using the effective interest method.
4. Prepare journal entry to record the first two interest payments.
5. Prepare journal entry to record the retirement of bonds on January 1, 2017, at 106.
6. If the market rate on January 1, 2015, is 14% instead of 10%. Without presenting numbers, describe how this change affects the amounts reported on Ike’s financial statement.

If the market rate on January 1, 2015 is 14% instead of 10%, the issue will be on discount because the market rate exceeds the contract rate. As the interest expense is computed based on carrying value which includes the amortized discount, the interest expense will increase on the income statement and there will be contra liability account for the discount on the
