Ditto what I said about making an attempt to do the work. If you have specific questions about how to do something like this, then ask a specific question. I won't just tell you an answer.

The answer is b.) 5452
800,000 @ 6% is 48,000 annually and 24, 000 semi-annually there are 20 periods (10 years x 2 ).
Cash 690,960 (given)
Discount of bond payable 109, 040
Bonds Payable 800,000
discount/# of periods 109,040/20 = 5,452

If you're going to do people's homework for them, at least know how to do it. I should have let it stand and let the person get the wrong answer - good lesson to be learned there.

690,960*.04=27,638
semi coupon 24,000
difference = 3,638 is the discount ammortization added on to the bonds book value.

Yes, it's correct, but please stop posting the same thing over and over. Also start a new thread for your homework instead of tagging onto someone else's.
