The bonds pay interest annually on May 31 of each year. The bonds are to be accounted for under the effective-interest method.

Construct a bond amortization table for this problem to indicate the amount of interest expense and discount amortization at each May 31.

Respuesta :

Answer:

For second period

Cash interest = $3,720,000 * 8% = $297,600

Interest expenses = 3,262,800 * 10% = $326,280

Discount = $326,280 - $297,600 = $28,680

For third period

Cash interest = $3,720,000 * 8% = $297,600

Interest expenses = $3,291,480 * 10% = $329,148

Discount = $329,148 - $297,600 = $31,548
