Cullumber Company

The bonds should be reported in the December 31, 2021 balance sheet at a carrying value of:

= $3,949,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

October 1, 2021:

Face value of bonds = $4,100,000

Cash payment for bonds = $4,010,000

Accrued interest on bonds = $61,000

Unamortized Bonds Discount = $151,000 ($4,100,000 - $4,010,000 + $61,000)

Carrying value = Face Value - Unamortized discounts

= $3,949,000 ($4,100,000 - $151,000) or ($4,010,000 - $61,000)

Amortization of discount using the straight-line method on March 31:

Interest Revenue = $205,000

Semi-annual amortized discount = $7,550 ($151,000/20)
