Solution

1)

Interest $ 24,000,000 x 15.04630 (see note 1) $ 361,111,200
Principal $ 480,000,000 x 0.09722 (see note 2) $ 46,665,600
Present value of bonds Total $ 407,776,800

Note 1:

Interest calculation = $ 480,000,000 x 10% x (6/12) = $ 24,000,000

Present value of an ordinary annuity of $1: n = 40, i = 6% (PVA of $1) = 15.04630

Note 2:

Present value of $1: n = 40, i = 6% (PV of $1) = 0.09722

2) Bonds will be issued at discount because the present value of inflows is less than the face value. The Discount on bonds account should be amortized to interest expense over the life of the bond. The amortization will cause the bond value to increase from $ 407,777,760 on January 1, 2021 to $ 480,000,000 just prior to maturing of bond on December 31,2040

a) Journal entry for Issuance of bonds

Date Journal Debit Credit
Jan 1, 2021 Cash $ 407,777,760  
  Discount on bonds (Balancing Fig.) $ 72,222,240  
  Bonds Payable   $ 480,000,000
  (Being bonds issued by McWherter at present value of bonds)    

b) Journal entry for Blanton's Investment

Date Journal Debit($) Credit($)
Jan 1, 2021 Investment in bonds 480,000  
  Discount on bond investment (Balancing Fig.)   72,222
  Cash   407,778
  (Being $400,000 bonds purchased which is 0.1% of the total value of bonds issued )    

3) We record interest expense at effective rate of interest which is the market rate of interest. Here it is 6% for each semi - annual period. However the corporation must make an interest payment of 5% per semi annual period.The difference between the above two amounts will be the amortization.

Journal entry to record interest expense on June 30, 2021

a)

Date Journal Debit($) Credit($)
June 30, 2021 Interest Expense 24,466,666  
  Discount on bonds (Balancing Fig.)   466,666

  (Being interest paid at 10% for 6 months i.e,at 5% and interest expense charged at market yield , difference used to write off the discount on bonds )    

b)

Date Journal Debit($) Credit($)
June 30, 2021 Cash ( 5% of 480,000) 24,000  
  Discount on bond investment (Balancing Fig.) 467   
  Interest Revenue ( 6% of 407,778 )   24,467

a. Accrual method

Sales 500,000
cost of goods sold (see working) (165,000)
Gross profit 335,000
operating expenses (170,000)
net income 165,000

working;

cost of goods sold =purchases - inventory in hand =>$200,000-35,000 =>$165,000.

b. cash method;

sales ($500,000-120,000 not collected) 380,000
less; cost of goods sold (200,000 purchases - 30,000 not paid) (170,000)
gross profit 210,000
operating expenses (170,000 -40,000 not paid) (130,000)
net income 80,000

c. Paying $40,000 will not change her net income under accrual method (since it already expenses it irrespective of cash payment).

paying $40,000 will change her net income under cash method . (the net income will reduce by $40,000 paid now).
