Expert Solution

Based on the information available in the question, we can answer as follows:-

Date Credit Cash Debit Bond Interest expense Debit Bonds Payable Carrying amount of Bonds
01/01/20                              750,469.00
01/01/21                                     98,000                       90,056.28                       (7,943.72)                        742,525.28
01/01/22                                     98,000                       89,103.03                       (8,896.97)                        733,628.31
01/01/23                                     98,000                       88,035.40                       (9,964.60)                        723,663.71

Credit cash is calculated as follows :- $700,000 * 14% = $98,000

Interest expense :- Carrying amount of Bonds * Yield :- For example 01/01/21 :- $750,469 * 12% = $90,056.28
