On July 1, 2021, Rainbow Digital retired the bonds at 101 before their scheduled maturity. What is the amount of gain (loss) on early extinguishment of bonds?

    Loss on early extinguishment = 1,008,357.64

    Explanation:

    dа ta:

    T = Interest rate = 10% = 0.10

    FA = Face amount = $1,000,000

    RD = Remaining Discount = $139,294

    Y = Yield rate = 12% = 0.12

    RT = Retirement Time = 6/12 = 0.5

    BA = Bonds at = 101% = 1.01

    EE = Gain (loss) on early extinguishment = ?

    IE = Interest Expense = ?

    D = Discount on bond payable = ?

    Calculations:

    IE = Y * (FA - RD) * RT

    IE = 0.12 * ($1,000,000 - $139,294) * 0.5 = 0.12 * $860,706 * 0.5 = $51,642.36

    D = FA - [IE - (T * FA * RT) ]

    D = $1,000,000 - [$51,642.36 - (0.10 * $1,000,000 * 0.5) ] = $1,000,000 - [$51,642.36 - $50,000] = $1,000,000 - $1,642.36 = $998,357.64

    EE = FA - [D + (FA * BA) ]

    EE = $1,000,000 - [$998,357.64 + ($1,000,000 * 1.01) ] = $1,000,000 - [$998,357.64 + $1,010,000] = $1,000,000 - 2,008,357.64 = - 1,008,357.64

    EE = - 1,008,357.64 (Loss)
