Serotta Corporation is planning to issue bonds with a face value of $390,000 and a coupon rate of 16 percent. The bonds mature in two years and pay interest quarterly every March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31. All of the bonds were sold on January 1 of this year. Serotta uses the effective-interest amortization method and also uses a premium account. Assume an annual market rate of interest of 12 percent. (FV of $1, PV of $1, FVA of $1, and PVA of $1) (Use the appropriate factor(s) from the tables provided.) 1. Provide the journal entry to record the issuance of the bonds January 12. Provide the journal entry to record the interest payment on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of this year.3. What bonds payable amount will Serotta report on this year's December 31 balance sheet?

Answer and Explanation:

Before recording the journal entries following calculations need to be made

Maturity amount $390,000    

Interest periods 8    

The Market rate of interest 3%    

Now Quarterly interest paid $15,600 ($390,000 × 16% ×3 ÷ 12)       Annuity factor for 8 periods7.0197    

And, Present value factor for 8th period 0.7894    

So,

The Present value of Interest $109,507    

Add: And, the Present value of Maturity $307,866    

Issue price $417,373

you can lose ranking 2 ways.

1) you don't have enough points due to you expending them by asking questions/your answers are deleted.

2) your brainliest's expired. this means that brainliests, once they exceed the 30 day limit, expires. this is to ensure that you continue to contribute into the community at a constant rank if you want to continue to have/exceed the rank you have right now.

if you go to profile, and click "show more information" located on the bottom left of the box with your information (on top of the questions answered, questions asked, and friends), you will be given the following information (example):

member since : 02/13/2017, 18: 11

questions answered: 9741

questions asked: 162

no. of brainliest answers: 1575

brainliest answers in last 30 days: 10

warnings: 0 view

questions/answers reported: 2637

questions/answers incorrectly reported: 64

look at the "brainliest answers in the last 30 days". this is the one that will affect your rank other than your points. again, once your brainliest expires (was earned 31+ days ago), it will not be counted.
