    The bond will be presented in the Long-term Liabilities part of E-Tech Initiatives Limited's Balance sheet as followed:

    Bond Payable $ 450,000

    Discount on Bond Payable $ (9,000)

    Carrying value $441,000

    Explanation:

    By issuing bonds, E-Tech Initiatives assumes Liability to its bond holders. Besides, the bond tenor is 10 years, thus it will be present in the long-term liabilities part of the firm's Balance sheet.

    The issuing price is: 450,000 x 0.98 = $441,000 as it issues at a discount of 2%. The Bond Payable will be presented at the bond's face value of 450,000 Credit, however, a Discount on Bond Payable of 9,000 Debit should also be included to come up with its actual carrying value of $441,000 credit.
