    Dr Cash $404000 increase in asset

    Cr Bonds payable $400000 increase in liabilities

    Cr Bond premium $4000 increase in liabilities

    Explanation:

    The impact of the bond issue as it affects asset, liabilities or equity is discussed below.

    The issue of bond gave rise to cash of $404,000 ($101/$100*$400000)

    The receipt of $404000 from the issue implies that cash, an asset of Ravine Company has increased by $404000.

    However, for every debit entry passed in the books of account there must be a corresponding credit, hence the transaction increases the company liabilities by $404000, split into $400000 bonds payable and $4000 bond premium.

    The premium is amortized to income statement over the tenure of the bond.
