Year Sinking Fund Maturities

Explanation / Answer

(a)

Face value OF bonds = $100

Issue price of bonds = $104

Premium per bond = $4 / $100 = 4%

Total premium = $4,468,000 * 0.04 = $178,720

Difference between Bond date and Issue date = 2 months

Accrued interest = $4,468,000 * 0.08 *2/12 = $59,573

Total amount received = Face value + premium + Accrued interest = $4,468,000 + $178,720 + $59,573 = $4,706,293

Issuance cost = $25300

Net amount received = $4,706,293 - $25,300 = $4,680,993

(b)

Carrying amount of bond = $630,990

Effective interest rate = 10%

Interest expense for 2014 = $630,990 * 0.10 = $63,099.00

(c)

Maturities and sinking fund requirements on long-term debt for the next five year are as follows:

2015       $426,000

2016       $374,300

2017       $226,400

2018       $209,500

2019       $370,700

(d)

Since the three bonds are secured by either real estate, securities of other corporations, or plant equipment, none of the bonds are classified as debenture bonds.
