ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

  1. (a) Long-term liabilities are obligations that are expected to be paid after one year. Examples include bonds, long-term notes, and lease obligations. (b) Bonds are a form of interest-bearing notes payable used by corporations, universities, and governmental agencies.
  2. (a) The major advantages are: (1) Stockholder control is not affected—bondholders do not have voting rights, so current stockholders retain full control of the company. (2) Tax savings result—bond interest is deductible for tax purposes; dividends on stock are not. (3) Earnings per share may be higher—although bond interest expense will reduce net income, earnings per share on common stock will often be higher under bond financing because no additional shares of common stock are issued. (b) The major disadvantages in using bonds are that interest must be paid on a periodic basis and the principal (face value) of the bonds must be paid at maturity.
  3. (a) Secured bonds have specific assets of the issuer pledged as collateral. In contrast, unse- cured bonds are issued against the general credit of the borrower. These bonds are called debenture bonds. (b) Term bonds mature at a single specified future date. In contrast, serial bonds mature in installments. (c) Registered bonds are issued in the name of the owner. In contrast, bearer (coupon) bonds are issued to bearer and are unregistered. Holders of bearer bonds must send in coupons to receive interest payments. (d) Convertible bonds may be converted into common stock at the bondholders’ option. In contrast, callable bonds are subject to call and retirement at a stated dollar amount prior to maturity at the option of the issuer.
  4. (a) Face value is the amount of principal due at the maturity date. (Face value is also called par value.) (b) The contractual interest rate is the rate used to determine the amount of cash interest the borrower pays and the investor receives. This rate is also called the stated interest rate because it is the rate stated on the bonds. (c) A bond indenture is a legal document that sets forth the terms of the bond issue. (d) A bond certificate is a legal document that indicates the name of the issuer, the face value of the bonds, and such other data as the contractual interest rate and maturity date of the bonds.
  5. The two major obligations incurred by a company when bonds are issued are the interest payments due on a periodic basis and the principal which must be paid at maturity.
  6. Less than. Investors are required to pay more than the face value; therefore, the market interest rate is less than the contractual rate.
  7. $28,000. $800,000 X 7% X 1/2 year = $28,000.
  8. $860,000. The balance of the Bonds Payable account minus the balance of the Discount on Bonds Payable account (or plus the balance of the Premium on Bonds Payable account) equals the carrying value of the bonds.

Questions Chapter 15 (Continued)

*18. No, Tina is not right. The market price of any bond is a function of three factors: (1) The dollar amounts to be received by the investor (interest and principal), (2) The length of time until the amounts are received (interest payment dates and maturity date), and (3) The market interest rate.

*19. The straight-line method results in the same amortized amount being assigned to Interest Expense each interest period. This amount is determined by dividing the total bond discount or premium by the number of interest periods the bonds will be outstanding.

*20. $28,000. Interest expense is the interest to be paid in cash less the premium amortization for the year. Cash to be paid equals 8% X $400,000 or $32,000. Total premium equals 5% of $400, or $20,000. Since this is to be amortized over 5 years (the life of the bonds) in equal amounts, the amortization amount is $20,000 ÷ 5 = $4,000. Thus, $32,000 – $4,000 or $28,000 equals interest expense for 2008.

Issue Stock Issue Bond Income before interest and taxes Interest ($2,000,000 X 8%) Income before income taxes Income tax expense (30%) Net income (a)

Outstanding shares (b) Earnings per share (a) ÷ (b)

Net income is higher if stock is used. However, earnings per share is lower than earnings per share if bonds are used because of the additional shares of stock that are outstanding.

*BRIEF EXERCISE 15-

(b) i = 10% ? $10,

Discount rate from Table 15 A-1 is .46651 (8 periods at 10%). Present value of $10,000 to be received in 8 periods discounted at 10% is therefore $4,665. ($10,000 X .46651).

(b) i = 8%

? $20,000 $20,000 $20,000 $20,000 $20,000 $20,

Discount rate from Table 15 A-2 is 4.62288 (6 periods at 8%). Present value of 6 payments of $20,000 each discounted at 8% is therefore $92,457.60 ($20,000 X 4.62288).

*BRIEF EXERCISE 15-

(a) Interest Expense ............................................................. 46, Discount on Bonds Payable............................... 1, Cash ........................................................................... 45,

(b) Interest expense is greater than interest paid because the bonds sold at a discount which must be amortized over the life of the bonds. The bonds sold at a discount because investors demanded a market interest rate higher than the contractual interest rate.

(c) Interest expense increases each period because the bond carrying value increases each period. As the market interest rate is applied to this bond carrying amount, interest expense will increase.
