Question 12
On June 30, 2004, Marmet Company issued 12% bonds with a par value of $300,000 due in 20 years. They were issued at 98 and were callable at 104 at any date after June 30, 2012. Because of lower interest rates and a significant change in the company’s credit rating, it was decided to call the entire issue on June 30, 2013, and to issue new bonds. New 10% bonds were sold in the amount of $800,000 at 102; they mature in 20 years. Marmet Company uses straight-line amortization. Interest payment dates are December 31 and June 30. What is the loss on the early extinguishment of debt?
300,000 * 2% = $6,000
$6,000 / 20 years = $300 A YEAR OF AMORTIZATION
Original carrying value= $300,000* .98= $294,000
9 yrs * $300= $2,700 + $294,000 = $296,700 = Carrying Value at the call date
Call Price
$300,000 * 104%= $312,000
$312,000- $296,700 = $15,300
We have a loss of $15,300
A)$15,300
