Issue of bond at par: When the coupon rate or contract rate of a bond is equal to the market interest rate, the bond is being issued at par value. If a bond is issued at par, the selling price of the bond will be equal to face value of the bond . Issue of bond at discount: When the coupon rate or contract rate of a bond is lower than the market interest rate, the bond is being issued at discount. The selling price of the bond will be lower than the face value of the bond under issue of bond at discount. 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. To determine: Journalize issuance of bond and the first semiannual interest payment under each of the each assumptions.

Definition Definition Calculates the present value of a bond's expected future periodic coupon payments. Bond valuation determines the theoretical fair value of a particular bond and helps investors estimate what rate of return they could expect. The bond's theoretical fair value is computed by discounting the future cash flows or coupon payments by an applicable discount rate.

To determine
Issue of bond at par:
When the coupon rate or contract rate of a bond is equal to the market interest rate, the bond is being issued at par value. If a bond is issued at par, the selling price of the bond will be equal to face value of the bond.
Issue of bond at discount:
When the coupon rate or contract rate of a bond is lower than the market interest rate, the bond is being issued at discount. The selling price of the bond will be lower than the face value of the bond under issue of bond at discount.
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.
To determine:
Journalize issuance of bond and the first semiannual interest payment under each of the each assumptions.
