    Cash $514,100

    Discount on bond payable $15,900

    Bond Payable $530,000

    Explanation:

    Cash is received against the Bond issued is debited due to its debit nature and the bond payable account is credited because it is a liability and its nature is credit.

    Cash Received = (530,000 / 100) x 97 = $514,100

    Discount = (530,000/100) x (100 - 97) = $15,900
