    Accounting Help
    The December 31, 2014, balance sheet of Far Imports includes the following items:

    9% bonds payable due 12/31/2023... $800,000
    Discount on bonds payable... 21,600

    The bonds were issued on December 31, 2013, at 97, with interest payable on June 30 and December 31 of each year. The straight-line method is used for discount amortization.

    On March 1, 2015, Far Imports retired $400,000 of these bonds at 98 plus accrued interest. Prepare the journal entries to record retirement of the bonds, including accrual of interest since the last payment and amortization of the discount.

    The answer is you can't and I see no question here just a statement of data and a requirement to do some study and some work

    Thank you for asking our help with your homework assignment. However, there are some rules we have for doing so.
    Do not simply retype or paste a question from your book or study material

    We won't do your homework questions for you. You were given the assignment for you to learn.

    If you come up with your own answer or process and post it for us to critique that is acceptable. If you have some SPECIFIC questions that you couldn't find or didn't understand, we may help with that.
    But this is your assignment, so show us you have at least attempted to complete it on your own.

    Thank you.
