How much interest will Boston pay (in cash) to the bondholders every six months?

Par value x semi-annual rate= semiannual cash interest.

Semi-annual rate = 9/2 = 4.5%

1,450,000 x 4.5% = 65,250.

Prepare journal entries to record (a) the issuance of bonds on January 1, (b) the first interest payment on June 30, and (c) the second interest payment on December 31.
