    Compound Interest Bond

    Explanation:

    the company has issued compound interest bonds, compound equity bond that means that contains liability and equity. it has obtained the loan and the loan has been categorized at fair value.

    we need to find out Equity portion in face value of bond so we solve as follows

    We will identify the present value of interest payments and face value of bond at 10% yield

    Face Value = 800000

    Coupon Rate = 8%

    IRR = 10% Annual = Semi Annual = 5%

    Present Value of bond =

    Cash Out flow At 8% = 64000 Annual

    No of Outflows = 20

    IRR = 10

    Present Value of the bond 8% interest at 10% with annuity formula:

    P=R * (1 - (1+I) ^-n) / I = P=64000 * (1 (1+10%) - 20) / 10%

    = P=64000 * (1-0.14) / 10% = 64000 * (0.8513/10%)

    = P = 64000*5.5135 = 544868

    Present Value OF Face Value At year O At 10% issued for 20 years:

    P=800000 / (1+10%) ^20

    P = 118115

    present Value of the bond = 118115+544868 = 663,783

    Equity = Face Value - Present Value of liability

    Equity = 800000-663783

    Equity = 136,217

    1) Price Of the bond = 663783

    Journal Entry:

    Cash 800000

    Liability 663783

    Equity 136217

    To record the liability at present value

    2) We need amortization schedule for this requirement

    Amortization Schedule for first six months

    Year Face Value IRR 6% CR8% Closing Value

    6 months 663783 39827 -

    Journal Entry

    Interest Expense 39827

    Liability 39827

    To record the interest Expense 30 June 2016

    3)

    Year Face Value IRR 6% CR8% Closing Value

    6 months 663783 39827 - 703610

    6 months 703610 42217 - 64000 681827

    Journal Entry

    Interest Expense 42217

    Liability 21783

    Cash 64000

    To record the interest Expense 3 December 2016.

    4)

    Closing Value of the bond = 681827

    Fair Value At 31-Dec-2016 = 668000

    Gain on Fair valuation = 13827

    Journal Entry

    Liability 13827

    Gain on Fair Valuation 13827

    To record the fair valuation of bond at reporting date
