    1.

    January 1, 2019,

    Dr. Cash $1,000,000

    Cr. Bond Payable $1,000,000

    2.

    July 1,

    Dr. Cash $707,000

    Cr. Premium on Bond $7,000

    Cr. Bond Payable $700,000

    3.

    September 1,

    Dr. Cash $194,000

    Cr. Discount on Bond $6,000

    Cr. Bond Payable $200,000

    Explanation:

    1.

    As the bond is issued at the face value, $1,000,000 cash will be received, So cash account will be debited by $1,000,000 and Bond Payable account will be credited because it is a liability account.

    2.

    When the Bond is issued on the price more than its face value, the exptra amount from face value received is called Bond Premium.

    Cash Proceed = $700,000 x 101% = $707,000

    Premium = $707,000 - $700,000 = $7,000

    Bond Liability = $700,000

    3.

    The bond is issued on discount when the bond issuance proceeds are less than the face value of the bond.

    Cash Proceed = $200,000 x 97% = $194,000

    Discount = $200,000 - $194,000 = $6,000

    Bond Liability = $200,000
