Answer:

loss of $667

Explanation:

The solution of gain or loss is shown below:-

Value of $10,000 bonds = Bonds outstanding ÷ Issued amount × Bonds

= $106,000 ÷ $100,000 × $10,000

= $10,600

Premium = $10,600 - $10,000

= $600

Carrying value =Value of bonds - Premium × 4 ÷ 36

= $10,600 - $600 × 4 ÷ 36

= $10,533

Gain/ Loss on retirement = Bonds × Retired percentage  - Carrying value

= $10,000 × 112%  - $10,533

= $667

So, there will be loss of $667
