Ajax, Inc., issued callable bonds with a par value of $1,000,000 that require the payment of a call premium of $10,000. The bonds have a carrying value of $990,000. We call these bonds prior to maturity on September 30. Complete the necessary journal entry by selecting the account names and dollar amounts from the drop-down menus.

Bond payable $1,000,000

Loss on retirement of bond $20,000

           To Discount on bond $10,000

(Being the loss on retirement of bond is recorded)

For recording this we debited the bond payable and loss as it decrease the current liabilities and it increased the losses at the same time it decreased the discount and decreased the cash so the respective accounts are credited
