    January 1

    Dr. Cash $940,000

    Dr. Discount on Account Receivable $60,000

    Cr. Bond Payable Account $1,000,000

    Explanation:

    The difference between the face value of the bond and the sale value of the bond is known as premium or the discount on the bond. If the face value is higher from the sale value the bond is issued on the discount and if the sale value of the bond is higher than the face value the bond is issued on the premium.

    Discount on the Bond = Face value - Sale value = $100,000 - $940,000 = $60,000

    The discount amount will be recorded in Discount on Bond Payable Account and will be amortized over the 10 years until the maturity of the bond.
