Based on this information, what is the total amount of liabilities related to these bonds that will be reported on the balance sheet at December 31, Year 1? (Hint: Consider the interest that might be owed to bondholders at December 31, Year 1.)

The total liabilities of $156,000($150,000+$6,000)

Explanation:

The total liabilities to be recorded at December 31 year 1 is the value of the bonds payable plus the interest for first year that is yet to be paid.

The value of the bonds payable is $150,000 since the bonds were issued at par value.

The amount interest due at end of year 1 =face value*coupon interest rate

face value remains $150,000

coupon interest rate is 4%

the amount of coupon due at year 1 end=$150,000*4%=$6000

The interest payable is a current liability while the bonds payable of $150,000 is a non-current liability
