Step by step solution

01

Definition of bonds payable issue at a discount

Bond issued at discount is the situation when the bond issued by the company less than the face value of the bond.

02

Issue the bonds payable

  1. In this case, the bond is issued at a discount because the market interest rate of the bonds payable is greater than the stated bond rate. Hence, the bonds payable is issued at a discount.
  2. In this case, the bonds are issued at a premium because the stated interest rate is greater than the market interest.
  3. In this case, the bonds are issued at face value because the market interest rate and the stated interest rate are the same. Hence the bonds payable is issued at face value.
  4. In this case, the bonds payable is issued at a discount because the stated interest rate is less than the market interest rate. Hence, the bonds payable is issued at a discount.

Bill and Edna had been married two years and had just reached the point where they

had enough savings to start investing. Bill鈥檚 uncle Dave told them that he had recently

inherited some very rare railroad bonds from his grandmother鈥檚 estate. He wanted

to help Bill and Edna get a start in the world and would sell them 50 of the bonds at

\(100 each. The bonds were dated 1873, beautifully engraved, showing a face value of

\)1,000 each. Uncle Dave pointed out that 鈥淯nited States of America鈥� was printed

prominently at the top and that the U.S. government had established a sinking fund to

retire the old railroad bonds. A sinking fund is a fund established for the purpose of

repaying the debt. It allows the organization (the U.S. government, in this example)

to set aside money over time to retire the bonds. All Bill and Edna needed to do was

hold on to them until the government contacted them, and they would eventually get

the full \(1,000 for each bond. Bill and Edna were overjoyed鈥攗ntil a year later when
