Solution 1:

Face amount of bond = Outstanding balance at 40 th period = $7,000,000

Solution 2:

Initial selling price of bond = Outstanding balance at beginning = $4,893,518

Solution 3:

Term to maturity = 40 semi annual period =20 years

Solution 4:

Interest is determined by effective interest method approach.

Solution 5:

Stated annual interest rate = $280,000 / $70,000,000 = 4% semiannual, 8% annual rate of interest.

Solution 6:

Effective annual interest rate = Effective interest for 1st period / Outstanding balance at beginning

= $293,611 / $4,893,518 = 6% semiannual, 12% annual

Solution 7:

Total cash interest paid over the term of maturity = $280,000 * 40 = $11,200,000

Solution 8:

Total effective interest expense recorded over the terms of maturity = Cash interest paid + discount amortized

= $11,200,000 + ($7,000,000 - $4,893,518) = $13,306,482
