Chapter 14, Problem 6BTN
To determine

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. Preparation of format of amortization table for bond premium using effective interest method.

2 Allocating the amounts in their respective columns

3. Determine the final number in each column.

4. Computation of total bond interest expense over the life of the bonds.

5. Prepare similarities and differences between the amortization table for premium and discount.

    Differences

    Bond Interest
    Expense
    Decreases periodically over the life of the bonds.
    Increases periodically over the life of the bonds.
    Discount /Premium Amortization
    Premium amortization per period is computed by deducting the interest expense from the cash interest payment.
    Discount amortization per period is computed by deducting the cash interest payment from the interest expense.
    Carrying Value
    The carrying value decreases periodically till it becomes equal to par value at the maturity.
    (Par Value + Unamortized Premium)
    The carrying value increases periodically till it becomes equal to par value at the maturity.
    (Par Value - Unamortized Discount)

Explanation of Solution

Explanation:

2.
  Premium on Bonds Payable = Issue price of the bondPar value of the bond                                                 = $104,100*  $100,000                                                 = $4,100 *Issue Price = $100,000 X 1.041 = $104,100

Same steps are followed through all the period till the maturity of the bonds.

4.

    Computation of total interest expense
    Amount to be repaid at maturity:

    Total Interest Payment
    $45,000
    Par Value of Bonds
    $100,000
    Total amount to be repaid
    $145,000
    Less : Selling Price of the Bonds
    $104,100


    Total Bond Interest Expense
    $40,900


  *Interest Payment = $4,500 X 10 = $45,000* Semiannual Interest Payment = $100,000 X 0.045 = $4,500

Conclusion

Conclusion:

Thus, from the above we can clearly understand the differences and the similarities between the amortization table for premium and discount.
