Convertible bonds
On December 1, 2020, Dango Corp. issued $ 5,000,000 (par value), 12%, 5-year convertible bonds for $ 5,026,000 plus accrued interest. The bonds were dated April 1, 2020 with interest payable April 1 and October 1. If the bonds had NOT been convertible, they would have sold for $ 5,006,000. Bond premium/discount is amortized each interest period on a straight-line basis. Dango does NOT value the equity component at zero. Dango's fiscal year end is September 30.
On October 1, 2021, half of these bonds were converted into 35,000 no par common shares. Accrued interest was paid in cash at the time of conversion.
Instructions
a) Prepare the entry to record the interest expense at April 1, 2021. Assume that interest payable was credited when the bonds were issued (round to nearest dollar).
b) Prepare the entry to record the conversion on October 1, 2021. Use the book value method. Assume that the entry to record amortization of the bond premium/discount and interest payment has been made.
