Expert Solution

Answer

So, the correct option is 2nd "discount of $49,280".

Explanation

Computation of Discount on Bond:

Issue price = $4,400,000

Value of bonds without warrant = $4,400,000*96/100 = $4,224,000

Issue price of bonds with warrants = $4,400,000*103/100 = $4,532,000

Discount on Bond = $4,400,000 - [($4,224,000/$4,400,000)*$4,532,000]

= $4,400,000 - $4,350,720

Discount on Bond = $49,280
