Face value of Bond = $40 million

Coupon rate = 12%

Discount on Bonds Payable = $1 million

Carrying Value of Bonds = $40 million - $1 million = $39 million

Yield on Bonds = 14%

Semi annual Coupon amount on Bonds = $40 million*12%*1/2 = $2.4 million

Interest expense as on 1 January, 2018 = Carrying value of Bonds*Interest rate

= $39 million*14%*1/2 = $2.73 million

Discount amortised = $2.73 - $2.4 = $0.33 million

Balance of Discount on Bond Payable = $1 million - $0.33 = $0.67million

Carrying Value of Bonds = $40 million - $0.67 million = $39.33 million

Journal entry as on January 1,2018 for recording interest expense:

Date	Accounts Title and explanation	Debit($)	Credit($)
Jan 1, 2018	Interest Expense	2.73 million
	Cash		2.4 million
	Discounts on Bond Payable		0.33 million

As on July 2018:

Bond Payable = $40 million

Interest expense = $39.33 million*14%*1/2 = $2.7531 million

Cash interest to be paid = $2.4 million

Discounts on Bonds Payable = $2.7531 million - $2.4 million = $0.3531 million

Balance of Discount on Bonds payable = $0.67 million - $0.3531 million = $0.3169 million

Carrying Value of Bonds = $40 million - $0.3169 million = $39.6831 million

Cash paid on retirement of Bonds = $41.2 million

Loss on retirement on Bonds = $41.2 million - $39.6831 million = $1.5169 million

Journal entry for retirement of Bonds as on July 1,2018:

Date	Accounts Title and explanation	Debit($)	Credit($)
July 1, 2018	Bonds Payable	40 million
	Loss on retirement on Bonds	1.5169 million
