    A debit of $6.1 million to a loss account

    Explanation:

    The answer is A debit of $6.1 million to a loss account.

    To calculate this:

    the carrying value of the bonds $22.2 million is subtracted from the market value of the bonds $28.3 million.

    Carrying value, $22.2 million, less cash paid to retire the bonds of $28.3 million

    = $28.3 - $22.2

    = $6.1 million to a loss account.
