Textbook Question
Chapter 14, Problem 14.11P
Convertible Bonds, Bond Issue Costs, Conversion. On January 1, 2018, Mesa Machinery Corporation issued 75 of 12-year, 12% convertible bonds at par. Each bond had a par value of $1,000 and pays interest annually on December 31. Because the bonds were issued at par, the yield on the bond is also equal to 12%. Each $1,000 bond converts into 25 shares of $1 par value common stock at the option of the bondholder beginning 2 years after the date of issue. Bond issue costs are $480. The market price of the common stock on the issue date was equal to $60 per share. Any discount is amortized using the effective interest rate method.
Required
- a. Prepare the
journal entry to record the bond issuance. - b. Find the effective rate of interest after considering bond issue costs. Prepare the amortization table using the new effective rate of interest and the effective interest rate method.
- c. Prepare the journal entries to record the interest payment for the first 3 years.
- d. Prepare the entry to record the bond conversion assuming that all bonds convert at the end of the third year.
