Acorporation issues $100,000, 8%, 5-year bonds on january 1, 2007, for $104,200. interest is paid annually on january 1. if the corporation uses the straight-line method of amortization of bond discount, the amount of bond interest expense to be recognized in december 31, 2007's adjusting entry is
a. $7,160.
b. $8,000.
c. $8,840.
d. $840.

Option (a) is correct.

Explanation:

Yearly amortization of the bond discount:

= (Amount of bonds issued - Issued for)

= (100,000 - $104,200) ÷ 5

= -$840

Adding this to the cash payment of interest:

= $100,000 × 8%

= $8,000

We get,

= Interest payment + Yearly amortization of the bond premium

= $8,000 + (-$840)

= $7,160

It is the amount of bond interest expense to be recognized in December 31, 2007.
