Federal Semiconductors issued 11% bonds, dated January 1, with a face amount of $100 million on January 1, 2013. The 20-year bonds sold for $92.477 million and mature in 2032. For bonds of similar risk and maturity the market yield was 12%. Interest is paid annually on December 31. Federal uses the effective interest method, and elected to report these bonds at their fair value. On December 31, 2013, the fair value of the bonds was $92.050 million (OTC market).

Prepare the journal entry for the first interest payment on December 31, 2013.

Assume that Federal has already recorded its 2014 interest payment and the fair value of the bonds on December 31, 2014 had dropped to $91.200 million. Calculate the PV of the remaining payments (CV of B/P) as of December 31, 2014 and prepare the journal entry to adjust the bonds to their fair value for presentation on the December 31, 2014 balance sheet.

CV of B/P, 1/1/2013 $92,477,000

2013 disc amortization __________

CV of B/P, 12/31/2013 - $92,050,000 (MV) = (FVadj balance)

2014 disc amortization __________

CV of B/P, 12/31/2014 - (MV) = (FVadj balance)

( FVadj bal)

On January 1, 2010, Slug Corporation issued $6 million of 8%, 9-year convertible bonds at 102. The bonds pay interest on June 30 and December 31. Each $1,000 bond is convertible into 40 shares of common stock. Fuzz Company bought the entire issue as an investment. Slug Corporation uses U.S. GAAP and Fuzz Company uses IFRS; however, both companies use the straight-line method for any discount/premium amortization.

a.If Slug also issued $12 million of 8%, 9-year nonconvertible bonds at 96 on that same January 1, 2010, then what economic $$ value did investor Fuzz put on the conversion option of the $6 million convertible bond issue mentioned earlier?

b.On July 1, 2013 3 years after acquiring the convertible bonds Fuzz converted all of them into common stock, when the market price per share of Slug was $32. The book value of Slugs debt at the time of conversion is $6,073,333 while the market value of the issued shares is $7,680,000. Complete Slugs journal entry at conversion assuming it uses the book value approach.
