Question 1 (Issuance of bonds)


Global Limited issued $2,000,000 bonds on January 1, 2021 to finance the acquisition of an asset.
Each bond has a par value of $1,000, a stated interest rate 10%, and the bonds' maturity date is
December 31, 2023. The bond pays interest every June 30 and December 31. The effective interest
rate is 8%.

Required:
1. What is the price of the bonds at January 1, 2021? Is the bond issued at a discount or premium?
2. Prepare the journal entry to record the issuance of bonds on January 1, 2021.
3. Prepare the journal entries to record interests on June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2021.
Question 2 (Issuance, conversion and repurchase of convertible bonds)
On January 1, 2020, Ladybird Inc. issued 20,000 of its 5-year, $1,000 face value, 8% convertible
bonds at an effective interest rate (yield) of 7% with interest payable every December 31. (Hint: A
similar debt instrument without the option feature was issued at 9% yield.) The bonds are
convertible at the investor’s option into Ladybird’s ordinary shares of 10 shares for each bond.

Required:
1. Prepare the journal entry for Ladybird on January 1, 2020 regarding the bond issuance. Show
calculations.

2. Interests were paid on December 31, 2020, December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2022. On
January 1, 2023, all outstanding bonds were converted when the market values per unit of the
bonds and ordinary shares were quoted as 106 and $109, respectively. Prepare the journal entry
for Ladybird on January 1, 2023 when all outstanding bonds were converted. Show
calculations.

3. Same as (b) above, but now assume that on January 1, 2023, instead of bond conversion,
Ladybird repurchased all outstanding bonds from the market when the market interest rate of a
similar bond without the option feature was 8%. Prepare the journal entry for such transaction.
Show calculations.
Question 3 (Troubled debt restructuring)
The Pigeon National Bank has a note receivable of $2,000,000 from the Duckling Company that it
is carrying at face value and is due on December 31, 2021. Interest on the note is payable at 6%
each December 31. The Duckling Company paid the interest due on December 31, 2019. On
January 1, 2021, the company asked the bank to modify the terms of the note because of its
financial difficulties. After negotiation the bank agreed to:
a. Forgive the interest accrued for the year just ended.
b. Reduce the interest rate to 4%.
c. Reduce the unpaid principal amount to $1.5 million and to be repaid at the end of 2022.

Required:
Prepare the journal entries by the Duckling Company necessitated by the restructuring of the debt at
(1) January 1, 2021, (2) December 31, 2021, and (3) December 31, 2022. (Assuming the market
interest rate at the date of restructuring is 4%).
