Question

Facts from A11-7: On 1 July 20X2, New Company purchased $600,000 of Old Corp. 5.5% bonds, classified as an AC investment. The bonds pay semi-annual interest each 30 June and 31 December. The market interest rate was 5% on the date of purchase. The bonds mature on 30 June 20X5.

Return to the facts of A11-7. Assume now that New Company is a private company that complies with ASPE. Straight-line amortization will be used rather than the effective-interest method.

Required:

  1. Calculate the price paid by New Company.

  2. Construct a table that shows interest revenue reported by New Company, and the carrying value of the investment, for each interest period to maturity. Use the straight-line method.

  3. Give entries for the first three interest periods based on your calculations in requirement 2.
