Answer :
On January 1, 2014, Carla Vista World issued bonds with a face value of $236,000 at 98.5. The bonds carry a stated interest of 6% payable each January 1. To prepare the journal entry for the issuance of the bonds, we need to first calculate the cash proceeds from the bond issuance and then record the entry.
The bonds are issued at 98.5, which means they are issued at 98.5% of their face value. To calculate the cash proceeds, we multiply the face value by the percentage:
$236,000 x 98.5% = $232,260
Now, we can record the journal entry for the issuance of the bonds:
Date: January 1, 2014
Account Titles: Debit | Credit
Cash: $232,260 (Debit)
Bonds Payable: $236,000 (Credit)
Discount on Bonds Payable: $3,740 (Debit)
