Explanation:

The journal entries made by Thomson Co. are to record the bond transactions.  For example, when the bonds were issued, cash was received.  This transaction gives rise to a debit to the Cash Account that received the value and a credit to the Bonds Payable Account that gave the value.  The bonds payable account represents the liability that is contracted by the bonds issue.  Recording these transactions in the journal show their effects on the accounting equation that requires assets to be equal to liabilities and owner's' equity following each transaction.
