1.Journal Entry For Issuance on June 20,2021

Date General Journal Debit Credit

June 20, 2021 Cash $978,079

Bond Payable $890,000

Premium on Bond Payable $88,079

Explanation:

Amount of Cash = Issue Price i.e. $978,079

Amount of Bond Payable = Face Value of Issued Bond i.e. $890,000

Amount of Premium on Bond Payable = Issue Price - Face Value i.e. {$978,079 - $890,000} $88,079

December 31, 2021 Interest Expense $39,123

Premium on bonds payable $927

Cash $40,050

June 30, 2022 Interest Expense $39,086

Premium on bonds payable $964

Cash $40,050

Explanation:

Amount of interest = Rate of Srcurity with Similar * Net Issue Price

Cash actually Paid = Acual Rate * Face Value

Premium on bond (Amortization amount) = Amount of interest - Cash

For December 31, 2021

Amount of interest = 4% * $978,079 = $39,123

Cash actually Paid = 4.5% * $890,000 = $40,050

Premium on bond (Amortization amount) = $927

For June 30, 2022

Amount of interest = 4% * {$978,079 - 927} = $39,086

Cash actually Paid = 4.5% * $890,000 = $40,050
