Explanation / Answer

Solution:

Issue Price of the bonds = $593,992

Par Value = 610 bonds x $1,000 = $610,000

Discount on Bonds Payable = 610,000 – 593,992 = $16,008

Annual Amortization of Discount (straight line method) = 16,008 / 3 = $5,336

Annual Cash Interest Payment = Par Value x Stated Interest Rate = 610,000*6% = $36,600
