• Security A : 30 bonds purchased last year at 98.5. The bonds are thinly traded, so no quoted price is available near the end of this year. However, prices and yield rates were available for bonds of similar duration and risk. Abbott used this data to estimate the end of the year fair value of the bonds at 97.8.

[23a]. Fair Value Disclosures – Bonds. Sunlight Mines issued $5,000,000 in semi-annual bonds on January 1, 2001 at face value. The bonds mature on January 1, 2016. The coupon interest rate was 8% per annum (4% each six months). It is now early January in 2009, eight years until maturity. Sunlight Mines is preparing its December 31, 2008 financial statements and, according to FASB No. 107, needs to disclose the fair value of the bonds. The bonds are not actively traded but Level 2 (FASB No. 157) information is available: the interest rate for semiannual bonds with similar bond ratings and maturities were being sold to yield 9% per annum (simple interest) as of 12/31/08.

REQUIRED: What is the estimated fair value of the bonds at 12/31/08? (Hint: If the bonds were issued on 12/31/08, what would people be willing to pay to buy them?) $_____________________________

[23b]. Troubled debt restructuring. Parts R Us Inc., is one of Carlson Car Care Company’s major creditors. Carlson Car Care Company is experiencing substantial financial difficulties. Its original note with Parts R Us, Inc. was dated February 1, 2006 and has a face value of $50,000 and specifies a 10% interest rate. The interest for the period ending Feb. 1, 2009 has not been paid. On Feb. 1, 2009, Carlson Car Care Company persuaded Brakes R Us to reduce the principal from $50,000 to $35,000 and to reduce interest payments to $2,800 per year for the remaining 4-year life of the debt. The modified terms also waive payment of the accrued interest currently due.

Instructions: Prepare the journal entry that Parts R Us Inc. would make on February 1, 2009. The creditor uses the effective interest rate method.


[23c]Lease Computations. Assume that you are working for a leasing company. The boss asks you to compute the monthly lease payment that the company should charge to earn a 12% return on the following lease: Fair market value of leased asset is $370,000. The first payment on lease will be made immediately upon signing and the second payment will be made at the end of the first month. The lease term is 4 years and the useful life of the asset is 6 years. At the end of the lease, the lessee guarantees that the asset will be worth $40,000 which is its estimated fair value at that time.

REQUIRED: What is the monthly payment? $__________________________

[23d] Serial Bonds On April 1, 2009, Falstaff Corporation issued $2,000,000 in serial bonds. The bond principal will be repaid in $500,000 increments beginning on April 1, 2010 with the final payment to be made on April 1, 2013. The bonds pay interest semi-annually on Oct. 1 and April 1. The coupon rate is 10% per annum. An investment banker handled the transaction and you have just received a check for $1,840,669.

Required:(1) Using the bonds outstanding method, what fraction would you use as part of the computation of

interest expense related to the payment on October 1, 2009?

(2) If the yield rate is 14% per annum (simple interest), what is the amount of interest expense for the six months ending October 1, 2009 using the effective interest method?

DSelected Notes on MC questions:4. $880,264 – $150,000 = $730,264.6. $56,250 (450,000/8 years because there is a bargain purchase option & lessee will use asset over its economic life) 15. Explanation: For the FMV test, under US GAAP, the lessee users the lower of the two rates if both are known. In this case,

the implicit rate is not known so the lessee uses the incremental borrowing rate of 9% while the lessor uses 10%. Under IFRS, the lessee uses the implicit interest rate if it is practicable to determine. Therefore both lessee and lessor would use 10% in the situation described.

21a Lessee amortization table – Not the same as the lessor’s table because the implicit interest rate is NOT known to lessee the amortization table starts with the PVMLP of the lease payments using 10% interest rate. Determine the present value as follows: PMT=23203, FV=2,500 BPO, i=10%, n=5, annuity due (BEGIN), PVLMP= 98,306. Depreciation expense for 2009 = $98,306 divided by 7 years = 14,044 * 7/12 proration = $8,192. We use the life of the asset rather than lease term because the lessee is presumed to buy the asset at the end of the lease since there is a bargain purchase option.

Sometimes I ask for gross profit which would be $1,210K or ($7,000K total revenue - $4,800K estimated costs)* 55%.

(b) Construction Expenses........................................................................................ 2,640,000Construction in Process ...................................................................................... 1,210,000

Cash ............................................................................................................... 2,000,000Accounts receivable .............................................................................. 2,000,000

(d) Under the completed contract method, no revenue or profit would be recognized on the contract until completion in 2009. So the answer is ZERO or NONE

(e) Current assetsCosts of uncompleted contracts in excess of related billings $140,000

Explanation: Progress billings has $2,500,000 ending balance and CIP has $2,640,000 ending balance for 2009. {Note that CIP does not include any profit under completed contract or zero-profit methods.} These two accounts work as a pair and since the debits > credits, we would report “cost of uncompleted contracts in excess of related billings” under “current assets” in the amount of $140,000 for 2009. If I had said “using the percentage of completion method” instead, the answer would have been $3,850,000 - $2,500,000 = $1,350,000 because the gross profit recognized so far is debited to construction in progress under the percentage of completion method.
