    Dr. Cash $250,000

    Cr. Bond Payable $250,000

    Explanation:

    Bonds issued are the liabilities for the company because it company received cash against the bonds which will be paid at maturity along with the interest.

    As cash is an asset and it is being received, to increase the value of cash balance we debited the cash account. The bond is a liability and to add a value in a liability account we need to credit the bond payable account.
