Trang 14 A trustee for bondholders has the responsibility of monitoring the issuer’s actions, financial performance, and financial condition to ensure that the obligations in the bond indenture are met
5 A bond indenture is a legal contract between the issuing company and the bondholders that identifies the obligations and rights of both parties It specifies such items as the par value of the bonds, the contract interest rate, the due dates for interest payments, and the maturity date(s) of the bonds It also may name a trustee, describe the bond issue in detail, and provide for a sinking fund
6 The contract rate (also known as the coupon rate, stated rate, or nominal rate) is the rate that is identified in the bond indenture It is applied to the par value to determine the size
of the cash interest payments The market rate is the consensus rate that a company is willing to pay and that investors are willing to accept for a specific bond
7 In general, the supply of and demand for bonds affect market rates The market rate for
a particular bond issue is also affected by risks unique to the issuer (e.g., financial performance and condition) and the length of time until the bonds mature
8. B The effective interest method creates a constant rate of interest over a bond’s life because the market rate at the time of issuance is multiplied by the beginning balance for each period The straight-line method produces either an increasing or decreasing rate because it allocates the same amount of expense to each period, even if the liability balance is growing (a discount) or decreasing (a premium)
9. C When issuing bonds between interest dates, a company collects accrued interest from the purchasers to avoid keeping detailed records of bond purchasers and the dates when bonds are purchased If the company did not collect accrued interest, individual
Trang 211 The issue price of a $2,000 bond sold at 98 ¼ is 98.25% of $2,000, or $1,965 The issue price of a $6,000 bond priced at 101 ½ is 101.5% of $6,000, or $6,090
12 The debt-to-equity ratio is calculated by dividing total liabilities by total equity The higher a company’s debt-to-equity ratio, the higher proportion of a company’s assets that are provided by creditors If a company has a high debt-to-equity ratio, the company may be at risk during poor economic times, because it must still pay off creditors even though it may not be earning as much as it did in the past
13 An entrepreneur (owner) must repay the bondholders the principal (par value) according
to the term of the bonds He or she must also pay interest on the bonds per the amount and frequency cited in the bond indenture, and must adhere to any stipulations (covenants) specified in the bond contract
14 Best Buy shows long-term both ―Long-term Liabilities‖ and ―Long-Term Debt‖ on its balance sheet To determine whether the long term debt is comprised of bonds or other obligations we must read footnote 4 disclosing details of the Long-Term Debt of the company The footnote reports that its long-term debt is comprised of Convertible debentures (bonds), Lease Obligations, and Mortgages
15 Per Circuit City’s February 28, 2005, statement of cash flows (financing section), the company repaid $28,008,000 for the fiscal year ended February 28, 2005
16 The financing section of the statement of cash flows of Apple indicates that for the year ended September 25, 2004, the company issued common stock totaling $427,000,000 For that same period, the company repaid debt in the amount of $300,000,000
17. D If a lease qualifies to be recorded as a capital lease, an asset account for the leased asset will be debited with an amount equal to the present value of the future lease payments The corresponding credit will be to a lease liability account.
18. D An operating lease is a short-term or cancelable lease in which the lessor retains the
risks and rewards of ownership The lessee expenses operating lease payments when incurred and the lessee does not report the leased item(s) as an asset nor as a liability
A capital lease is a long-term or noncancelable lease in which the lessor transfers
substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the lessee The lessee records the leased item as its own asset along with a lease liability at the start of the lease term— the amount recorded equals the present value of all lease payments
19. D Pension plans can be designed as defined benefit plans or defined contribution plans In
a defined benefit plan the employer estimates the contribution necessary to pay a
pre-defined benefit amount to its retirees For example, an employee’s monthly pension benefit may be set at $1,000 per month The employer must contribute the amount necessary to the pension plan to fund the $1,000 a month to the employee when the
employee retires Alternatively, with a defined contribution plan, the pension
contribution is defined and the employer or employee contributes the amount specified
in the pension agreement For example, a defined contribution plan might specify that the employer will contribute 2% of an employee’s annual salary to the pension plan every year

Part 5
If the market interest rate on the issue date had been 4% instead of 8%, the bonds would have sold at a premium because the contract rate of 5% would have been greater than the market rate
This change would affect the balance sheet because the bond liability would
be larger (par value plus a premium instead of par value minus a discount)
As the years passed, the bond liability would decrease with amortization of the premium instead of increasing with amortization of the discount
The income statement would show smaller amounts of bond interest expense
over the life of the bonds issued at a premium than it would show if the bonds had been issued at a discount
The statement of cash flows would show a larger amount of cash received
from borrowing However, the cash flow statements presented over the life of the bonds (after issuance) would report that the same amount of cash was paid for interest This cash amount is fixed as it is the product of the contract rate and the par value of the bonds and is unaffected by the change in the market rate
