Answer:

Explanation:

(a)

Schedule of Interest Revenue and Bond Discount Amortization

Straight-line Method

9% Bond Purchased Yields 12%

Date    Cash Receive   Interest Rev  Amortization   Carrying Amount

01/01/17      —                      —               —             185,589

01/01/18  18,000          22,804          4,804             190,393

01/01/19  18,000          22,804          4,804              195,197

01/01/20  18,000          22,803          4,803             200,000

Cash Rev = 200,000*9% = 18,000

Ammortization  = ($200,000 – $185,589) ÷ 3 = $4,804

Interest Rev = 18,000+4,804 = 22,804
