Answer:

June 1, 2022

Cash                                                 262650 Dr

    Bonds Payable                                   255000 Cr

    Premium on bonds payable              7650 Cr

Explanation:

As the bonds with a face value of $255000 are issued at 103%, this means that they are being issued at a premium of 3 percent. The premium on bonds payable will be,

Premium on bonds payable = 255000 * 0.03 = 7650

We will debit the cash received from issuing the bonds that is face value of the bond plus premium. The cash receipt will be = 255000 + 7650 = 262650

The journal entry will be to be to debit cash and credit bonds payable and premium on bonds payable
