Garland Company received proceeds of $178600 on 10-year, 6% bonds issued on January 1, 2018. The bonds had a face value of $190000, pay interest annually on January 1, and have a call price of 101. Garland uses the straight-line method of amortization. What is the carrying value of the bonds on January 1, 2020? $179740 $190000 $180880 $187492
Answer:
Face Value of Bonds = $190,000
Proceeds from issuance of bonds = $178,600
Discount on Bonds Payable = Face Value of Bonds - Proceeds from
issuance of bonds
Discount on Bonds Payable = $190,000 - $178,600
Discount on Bonds Payable = $11,400
Life of Bonds = 10 years
Discount on Bonds to be amortized annually = Discount on Bonds
Payable on issuance / Life of Bonds
Discount on Bonds to be amortized annually = $11,400 / 10
Discount on Bonds to be amortized annually = $1,140
Discount amortized = Discount on Bonds to be amortized annually
* Life expired
Discount amortized = $1,140 * 2
Discount amortized = $2,280
Carrying Value of Bonds = Issue Price + Discount amortized
Carrying Value of Bonds = $178,600 + $2,280
Carrying Value of Bonds = $180,880
