Explanation:

A. Preparation of the entry to record the issuance of the bonds and warrants.

Dr Cash 2,040,000

[(2,000*$1,000 )*1.02]

($2,000,000 *1.02=2,040,000)

Dr Discount on Bonds Payable $40,000

[(1 – .98) *$2,000,000]

Cr Bonds Payable $2,000,000

(2,000*$1,000 )

Cr Paid-in Capital—Stock Warrants 80,000

[$2,040,000 – ($2,000,000 * .98)]

(Being to record issuance of the bonds and warrants)

b. Preparation of the Journal entry Assume the same facts as part (a), except that the warrants had a fair value of $30

First step is to calculate the Total market value

Market value of bonds without warrants $1,960,000

($2,000,000 * .98)

Add Market value of warrants $60,000

(2,000 * $30)

Total market value $2,020,000

($1,960,000+$60,000)

Now let prepare the journal entry

Dr Cash $2,040,000

($2,000,000 *1.02=2,040,000)

Dr Discount on Bonds Payable $20,594

[($2,000,000+$60,594-$2,040,000]

Cr Bonds Payable $2,000,000

(2,000*$1,000 )

Cr Paid-in Capital—Stock Warrants $60,594

[($60,000/$2,020,000)*$2,040,000]

(Being to record issuance of the bonds and warrants)
