On January 1, 2021, Methodical Manufacturing issued 100 bonds, each with a face value of $1,000, a stated interest rate of 3 percent paid annually on December 31, and a maturity date of December 31, 2023. On the issue date, the market interest rate was 2.10 percent, so the total proceeds from the bond issue were $102,595. Methodical uses the straight-line bond amortization method and adjusts for any rounding errors when recording interest in the final year. Required: 1. Prepare a bond amortization schedule. 2-5. Prepare the required journal entries to record the bond issue, interest payments on December 31, 2021 and 2022, the interest and face value payment on December 31, 2023 and the bond retirement. Assume the bonds are retired on January 1, 2023, at a price of 102.

answer; experimentation;

two years ago, when picking flowers in the mountains back of yosemite valley, i found a book. it was blotted and storm-beaten; all of its outer pages were mealy and crumbly. the paper seemed to dissolve like the snow beneath which it had been buried, however; many of the inner pages were well preserved. and although all were more or less stained and torn, whole chapters were easily readable. this is the condition of the great open book of yosemite glaciers today; its granite pages have been torn and blurred by the same storms that wasted the castaway book.
