Recording Entries for Bonds with Warrants On July 1 of Year 1, Salem Corporation authorized $1,000,000 of 7% bonds due in 10 years. The bonds pay cash interest semiannually each June 30 and December 31. Each $1,000 bond includes a detachable stock purchase warrant. Each warrant gives the bondholder the right to purchase, for $30, one share of $1 par value common stock at any time during the next 10 years. The bonds were sold at 101 on July 1 of Year 1. The value of the stock purchase warrants at the time of issuance was $50,000. The bonds would sell without warrants at $ $970,000. a.
