Business Background
● Capital structure is the mix of debt and
equity used to finance a company.
● Loans from banks, insurance
companies, or pension funds are often
used when borrowing small amounts
of capital.
● Bonds are debt securities issued when
borrowing large amounts of money.
❐ Can be issued by either corporations or
governmental units.

Financial Analysis
● The debt-to-equity ratio is an
important measure of the state of a
company’s capital structure.
Debt-to-Equity Ratio = Total Liab. ÷Total Equity
● When a company’s debt-to-equity
ratio is excessive, a large amount of

fixed debt payments may cause


problems in tight cash flow periods.

Loans: Long-term Notes Payable


● Most long-term notes
require period payments.
● The note is repaid in
equal installments, part of
which are repayment of
principal and part of
which are interest.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 7

Example: Borrowing on
Long-term Note Payable
● ABC Co. signed a $100,000, 3 year
Note Payable which carried an 8%
annual interest rate. Payments are to
be made annually on December 31 of
each year for $38,803.35.
● What is the amount of the liability
(Note payable) after the first payment
is made?

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 8

Example continued...
● For Yr.1, the outstanding amount
borrowed is $100,000 (at 8%), so the
interest is:
❐ $8,000
● Payment is $38,803.35, so the
amount that will reduce the principal
is
❐ $30,803.35 [$38,803.35-$8,000]
● New outstanding principal amount is
❐ $100,000 - 30,803.35 = $69,196.65

Loans: Long-term Mortgages


● A mortgage is a special
kind of “note” payable--
one issued for property
(land, buildings).
● It is repaid in equal
installments, part of
which are repayment of
principal and part of
which are interest.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 13

How buying an asset using a mortgage


is reflected in the financial statements:
● Journal entry when the
mortgage is issued:
❐ Debit LAND or BLDG.
❐ Credit Mortgage Payable

● Journal entry to make a


City National Bank payment:
❐ Debit Interest expense
❐ Debit Mortgage Payable
❐ Credit Cash.

Characteristics of Bonds
Payable
● Bonds usually involve the borrowing
of a large sum of money, called
principal,
principal for a fairly long time period.
● The principal is usually paid back as
a lump sum at the end of the bond
period.
● Individual bonds are often
denominated with a par value,
value or face
value,
value of $1,000.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 16

Characteristics of Bonds Payable


● Bonds usually carry a stated rate of
interest.
interest
● Interest is normally paid semiannually.
● Interest is computed as:

Interest = Principal × Stated Rate ×

10- 17

Characteristics of Bonds Payable


● The new bondholder receives a
bond certificate.
certificate
❐ Identifies the par value, the stated
interest rate, the interest dates, and
the maturity date.
● The trustee makes sure the
issuing company fulfills all of
the provisions of the bond
indenture, or agreement.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
10- 18

Bond Classifications
● Unsecured bonds (also called
debentures) do not have pledged
assets as a guarantee of repayment
at maturity.
● Secured bonds include a pledge of
specific assets as a guarantee of
repayment at maturity.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 19

Bond Classifications
● Ordinary bonds (also called
single-payment bonds)
❐ The full face amount is paid at
the maturity.
● Serial bonds
❐ The principal is paid in
installments on a series of
specified maturity dates.

Measuring Bonds Payable


and Interest Expense
The selling price of the bond is
determined by the “market” based on
the time value of money.

The time value of money...


● Selling price of a
bond =
present value of
future cash flows
promised by the
bonds, discounted
using the market
rate of interest

The Appendix to this chapter shows how to make


Present Value calculations.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
10- 24

Measuring Bonds Payable


and Interest Expense
● The interest rate used to compute the
present value is the market interest rate.
rate
❐ Also called yield, effective rate, or true rate.
● Creditors demand a certain rate of
interest to compensate them for the
risks related to bonds.
● The stated rate,
rate or coupon rate,
rate is only
used to compute the periodic cash
interest payments.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 25

Determining the Selling


Price
● Bonds sell at:
❐“Par” (100% of face value)
❐ less than par (discount)
❐ more than par (premium)

● Market (or “effective”) rate of interest


vs. bond’s stated rate of interest
determines the selling price (or
market or issue price of the bond).

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 26

Determining the Selling


Price
● Selling price = Present value of
future cash flows promised by the
bonds, using market rate for present-
value calculations. (The Appendix
demonstrates these calculations.)
● Therefore, if
❐ market % > stated %: Discount
❐ market % < stated %: Premium
❐ market % = stated %: Face or par

Selling Bonds - Example


On Jan. 2, 2004, CeeDees Corp.
sells $100,000 in bonds having a
stated rate of 7% annually. The
bonds mature in 3 years, and
interest is paid semi-annually. The
market rate is 10% annually.
Determine whether the
bonds sell at par, at a
discount, or at a premium.

10- 28

Selling Bonds - Example


On Jan. 2, 2004, CeeDees Corp. sells
$100,000 in bonds having a stated rate of
7% annually. The bonds mature in 3
years, and interest is paid semi-annually.
The market rate is 10% annually.
These bonds would sell at a discount.
Investors are “demanding” a 10%
return. These bonds are only paying
7% interest. So, investors won’t buy
them unless the price is reduced; that
is, sold at a DISCOUNT.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
10- 29

Selling Bonds - Example


● Until recently, bond selling prices were
always quoted as a whole number with a
fraction such as: “922/5”. Now decimals
are used instead of fractions. So, the
bond above would be quoted as 92.400 in
the bond market.
What does that mean?

❐ The bonds sold for 92.400% of their face (par)


value.
❐ Proceeds = $92,400 for $100,000 face
bonds. ($100,000 x .924 = $92,400)

10- 34

Measuring and Recording Interest


on Bonds Issued at a Discount
● The discount must be amortized over the
outstanding life of the bonds.
● The discount amortization increases the
periodic interest expense for the issuer.
● Although the “Effective Interest” method is
required by GAAP, the easier “Straight-line”
method will be used for these examples.

❐ The Effective Interest amortization method is


explained in the Appendix)

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 35

Straight-Line Amortization of
Bond Discount
● Identify the amount of the bond
discount.
● Divide the bond discount by the
number of interest periods.
● Include the discount amortization
amount as part of the periodic
interest expense entry.
● The discount will be reduced to zero
by the maturity date.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
10- 36

Straight-Line Amortization of Bond


Discount
● CeeDees Corp. sold their bonds on Jan. 2,
2004 at 92.400. The bonds have a 3-year
maturity and $3,500 interest is paid
semiannually (that is, each six months).
● Why would the bonds sell for 92.400?
❐ The 10% market rate of interest is
greater than the 7% stated rate on the
bond face. So, investors won’t buy
them unless the price is reduced.

● Where did the $3,500 come from?


❐ $100,000 face x .07 x 1/2 yr.

Carrying value of BONDS


PAYABLE
● While the specific long-term
liability, Bonds Payable, is always
recorded (and kept) at face value,
the remaining balance (called the
Unamortized balance) of the
Discount or Premium will be
either subtracted (if discount) or
added (if premium) to the B/P-face
amount to get the carrying value
[also called “book” value] of the
bonds at any given date.

Selling Bonds - Example


On Jan. 2, 2004, Blimp, Inc. sells
$100,000 in bonds having a stated rate
of 10% annually. The bonds mature in 3
years and interest is paid semiannually.
The market (effective, or yield) rate is
8% annually.
Determine whether the bonds sell at par,
at a discount, or at a premium.

10- 52

Selling Bonds - Example


To figure out the proceeds from the
sale, you either have to calculate the
present value of the payments (using
the market rate of interest)
OR
Be told that the bonds sold at
“105.250”

Measuring and Recording Interest


on Bonds Issued at a Premium

● The premium must be amortized over


the term of the bonds.
(Again, GAAP requires the Effective
Interest method, but we’ll use the
Straight-line method here.)

● The premium amortization decreases


the periodic interest expense for the
issuer.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
10- 58

Straight-Line Amortization of
Bond Premium
● Identify the amount of the bond
premium.
● Divide the bond premium by the
number of interest periods.
● Include the premium amortization
amount as part of the periodic
interest expense entry.
● The premium will be reduced to zero
by the maturity date.

Understanding Notes to
Financial Statements
● Effective-interest method of
amortization is required by GAAP.
(This method is in the Appendix.)
● Straight-line amortization may be
used if it is not materially different
from effective interest amortization.
● Most companies do not disclose the
method used for bond interest
amortization.

Early Retirement of Debt


● When a bondholder (the
investor) sells a bond that is
already “on the market”, there
is no effect on the books of
the issuing company.
● Occasionally, the issuing
company will call (repay
early) some or all of its
bonds.
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
10- 68

Calling a bond...
● If the bond is callable, the issuer
may decided to call the bond
(retire it before maturity).
● The liability and any remaining
premium or discount would be
removed from the books.
● The difference between cash
paid and Carrying value on that
date is recorded as an income
statement Gain (cash paid < CV)
or Loss (cash paid > CV).
McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003
10- 69

Early Retirement of Debt


● Bonds can be retired by exercising a
call provision on the bond, or by
purchasing the bond on the open
market.
● Any gains or losses incurred as a
result of retiring the bonds should be
reported as an extraordinary item in
the lower portion of the income
statement.

McGraw-Hill/Irwin © The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 2003


10- 70

Ex: Early Retirement of Debt


What if the Blimp Corp. called their bonds at the
end of year 1? The bonds had a “Call Provision”
requiring the company to pay 104 to call the bonds.

Bond Sinking Funds


● A special fund to be used to retire
bonds at maturity.
● Normally, periodic cash
contributions are made to the fund.
● Usually reported on the balance
sheet as a non-current (investment)
asset.
