    Kenoly uses the effective-interest method, the amount of interest to be recorded in the financial statements on October 31, 2020 is $18,750.

    Explanation:

    Bond cost 562500

    Bond discount 9%

    Bond years 10

    Bond yield 10%

    Discount (June 30 - Oct. 30) = 9% * 4/12 = 0.033

    Interest (June 30 - Oct. 30) = 0.033[ 10% * 4/12]

    Interest Expense = $18,750
