    The loss on the retirement ignoring taxes is 1.895.000

    Explanation:

    Carrying amount - (Face Value * Interest Rate bonds) - (Carrying amount * premium yield)

    =$2,080,000 - (2.000.000*0.06) - (2,080,000*0.05)

    = 1.856.000

    = (2.000.000*0.06 * 1,04) - 1.856.000

    = 1.895.000
