Accounting
Several years ago, Soriano Corporation sold bonds with a face value of $1,000,000 to the public at a premium. Annual cash interest of 8 percent (i.e., $80,000) was to be paid on this debt. On January 1, 2019, Padino Inc., the parent company of Soriano Corporation, purchased these bonds on the open market for $940,000. (Hint: Did Padino purchase the bonds at a discount or a premium?) On that date, the bonds had 10 years until maturity and Soriano reported the book value of Bonds Payable of $1,045,000. Assume Padino uses the equity method to internally account for its investment in Soriano. Both parties use the straight-line method of amortization.
Required:
Consider a different scenario as follows. On January 1, 2019, Padino purchased these bonds on the open market for $1,045,000 and the bonds were reported in as Bonds Payable with a book value of $940,000 in Sorianos book on the same date. In this scenario, Padino purchased the bonds at a premium and Soriano issued the bonds at a discount. Other information remains the same as that in the original problem.
