The excess of the cash used to redeem the bonds and the carrying value is a loss on redemption. If the carrying value exceeds the cash necessary to redeem the bonds, a gain on redemption occurs. The difference between the carrying value and the cash used to redeem the bonds is a gain or loss on redemption.

If the market interest rate for a bond is lower than the stated interest rate, the bond will sell at
a premium.
When the effective-interest method of amortization is used for a bond premium, the amount of interest expense for an interest period is calculated multiplying the
carrying value of the bonds at the beginning of the period by the effective interest rate.
The effective-interest method of amortization of bond premiums and discounts is considered superior to the straight-line method because it results in a(n)
constant rate of interest.
On January 1, Sewell Corporation issues $2,000,000, 5-year, 12% bonds at 96 with interest payable on January 1. The year-end adjusting entry to record accrued bond interest and the amortization of bond discount using the straight-line method will include a
credit to Discount on Bonds Payable, $16,000.
The amortization of a bond discount will result in reporting an amount of interest expense for an interest period that
exceeds the amount of cash to be paid for interest for the period.
The carrying value of bonds will equal the market price of the bonds
on the date of issuance.
The sale or issuance of bonds for more than their face value
will cause the total cost of borrowing to be less than the bond interest paid.
The time period for classifying a liability as a current liability rather than as a long-term liability can be determined by whether it is expected to be paid
within one year or the operating cycle, whichever is longer.
