Bonds payable with a par value of $900,000, which are dated January 1, 2014, are sold at 106 plus accrued interest. They are coupon bonds, bear interest at 12% (payable annually at January 1), and mature January 1, 2024. (Use interest expense account for accrued interest.) Adjusting entries are made to record the accrued interest on the bonds, and the amortiza- tion of the proper amount of premium. (Use straight-line amortization.) Interest on the bonds is paid.
