Solution:

1) Bond's issue price = $ 948

2) Bond sell at Discount and Discount is $ 52 [ $1000 - $ 948]

3) Amount(s) should be shown on the balance sheet for bonds payable at the year-end

2018 = $ 964

2019 = $ 981

4) Following amounts: (a) $60, (b) $77, (c) $17, and (d) $981 Computation:

A) Cash Interest Payment = $1000 *6% = $ 60

B) Interest Expense = Book Value on Dec. 31, 2018 * Market Rate = $ 964 * 8% = $ 77

C) Amortization = Interest Expense - Cash Interest Payment = $77-$60 =$17

D) Book Value of bonds = $ 964 + $ 17 = $ 981
