Answer from: Raajo

To find the carrying value of the bonds after the first interest payments, we need to do the calculations to find the interest ..

Calculation of Interest:-

Cash interest payment of $ 6,900 ( 1.5% x $ 460,000) at the end of each semiannual period during the bonds life of 10 years… ( 3% / 2 = 1.5%)

That is $ 6,900 is paid for every six months say from Jan 30th to June 30 and June 30 to Dec 31……

So, every year we will pay $ 13,800 ( $ 6,900 + $ 6,900 ) for 20 periods ( two payments are made for every year, so for 10 years , we need to make the interest payment for 20 periods…)

Now lets amortize a bond discount.. (Amortizing is nothing but paying back

Straight Line Method… This method allocates an equal portion of the total bond interest expense to each interest period .

We divide the total bond interest expense of $ 142,000 by 20

This gives the interest expense of $ 7,100 per period. ( $ 6,900 interest + $ 200 Discount)

Interest Computation

Amount repaid to bondholders

20 interest payments of $ 6,900 = $ 138,000

Par value at maturity =$ 460,000

Total repaid to bondholders = $ 598,000

Less:- Amount borrowed from bondholders = $ 456,000

Total bond interest expenses = $ 142,000

The following table shows the decrease in Discount on bonds payable account and the increase in the bonds carrying value ( Straight line method)

This is the summarization of Discount bond Straight Line amortization..

Semiannual period –end Unammortized Discount Carrying Value

(0) 1 / 30 $ 4,000 $ 456,00

(1) 6 / 30 $ 3,800 $ 456,200

(4,000 -200) ( 456,00+200)

The carrying value of the bonds after the first interest payment is $ 456,200

If a firm plans to issue new stock, flotation costs (investment bankers' fees) should not be ignored. there are two approaches to use to account for flotation costs. the first approach is to add the sum of flotation costs for the debt, preferred, and common stock and add them to the initial investment cost. because the investment cost is increased, the project's expected return is reduced so it may not meet the firm's hurdle rate for acceptance of the project. the second approach involves adjusting the cost of common equity as follows: . the difference between the flotation-adjusted cost of equity and the cost of equity calculated without the flotation adjustment represents the flotation cost adjustment. quantitative problem: barton industries expects next year's annual dividend, d1, to be $1.90 and it expects dividends to grow at a constant rate g = 4.3%. the firm's current common stock price, p0, is $22.00. if it needs to issue new common stock, the firm will encounter a 6% flotation cost, f. assume that the cost of equity calculated without the flotation adjustment is 12% and the cost of old common equity is 11.5%. what is the flotation cost adjustment that must be added to its cost of retaine
