Accounting Nov 01, 2020

Claire Corporation is planning to issue bonds with a face value of $130,000 and a coupon rate of 10 percent. The bonds mature in two years and pay interest quarterly every March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31. All of the bonds were sold on January 1 of this year. Claire uses the effective-interest amortization method and also uses a discount account. Assume an annual market rate of interest of 12 percent. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use the appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.)

2) provide the journal entry to record the interest payment on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of this year.
3. What is the carrying value of the bonds Claire will report on this year's December 31 balance sheet? (Round your final answers to nearest whole dollar amount.)
