2) Prepare the journal entry to record the bond conversion.
no of bonds issued = 5600000 / 100
= 56000 bonds
issue price of the bonds = 56000 * 103
= $ 5768000
premium on bonds = issue price - par Value
= 5768000 - 5600000
= $ 168000
given Each bond converted into 10 Shares
no of Shares issued = (5600000 / 1000 ) * 10
