is generally expressed as an annual rate.
2. A mortgage bond is referred to as a debenture bond.
3. Bond issues that mature in installments are called serial bonds.

5. The interest rate written in the terms of the bond indenture is called the effective yield or
market rate.

8. A bond may only be issued on an interest payment date.
9. The cash paid for interest will always be greater than interest expense when using

10. Bond issue costs are capitalized as a deferred charge and amortized to expense over the
life of the bond issue.
11. The replacement of an existing bond issue with a new one is called refunding.
12. If a long-term note payable has a stated interest rate, that rate should be considered to be
the effective rate.
13. The implicit interest rate is the rate that equates the cash received with the amounts
received in the future.
14. An unrealized holding gain or loss is the net change in the fair value of the liability from
one period to another, exclusive of interest expense recognized but not recorded.
15. Off-balance-sheet financing is an attempt to borrow monies in such a way to minimize the
reporting of debt on the balance sheet.
16. The debt to total assets ratio will go up if an equal amount of assets and liabilities are

*19. The loss to be recognized by a creditor on an impaired loan is the difference between the
investment in the loan and the expected undiscounted future cash flows from the loan.
*20. In a troubled debt restructuring, the loss recognized by the creditor will equal the gain
recognized by the debtor.

Hurst, Incorporated sold its 8% bonds with a maturity value of $4,500,000 on August 1, 2011 for
$4,419,000. At the time of the sale the bonds had 5 years until they reached maturity. Interest on
the bonds is payable semiannually on August 1 and February 1. The bonds are callable at 104 at
any time after August 1, 2013. By October 1, 2013, the market rate of interest has declined and
the market price of Hurst's bonds has risen to a price of 101. The firm decides to refund the
bonds by selling a new 6% bond issue to mature in 5 years. Hurst begins to reacquire its 8%
bonds in the market and is able to purchase $750,000 worth at 101. The remainder of the
outstanding bonds is reacquired by exercising the bonds' call feature. In the final analysis, how
much was the gain or loss experienced by Hurst in reacquiring its 8% bonds? (Assume the firm
used straight-line amortization.) Show calculations.
Solution 14-122
Reacquisition price:
$750,000 × 1.01 = $ 757,500
$3,750,000 × 1.04 = 3,900,000 $4,657,500
Less net carrying amount:

On December 31, 2011, Short Co. is in financial difficulty and cannot pay a note due that day. It is
a $750,000 note with $75,000 accrued interest payable to Bryan, Inc. Bryan agrees to forgive the
accrued interest, extend the maturity date to December 31, 2013, and reduce the interest rate to
4%. The present value of the restructured cash flows is $642,000.

*Ex. 14-125—Accounting for troubled debt.

(a) What are the general rules for measuring and recognizing a gain or loss by the debtor on a
settlement of troubled debt which includes the transfer of noncash assets?
(b) What are the general rules for measuring and recognizing a gain and for recording future
payments by the debtor in a troubled debt restructuring?
*Solution 14-125
(a) If the settlement of debt includes the transfer of noncash assets, a gain is measured by the
debtor as the difference between the fair value of the assets transferred and the carrying
amount of the debt, including accrued interest. The debtor also recognizes a gain or loss on
the disposal of assets as the difference between the fair value of the assets transferred and
their book value.
(b) If the carrying amount of the payable is greater than the undiscounted total future cash flows,
the gain is measured by the debtor as the difference between the carrying amount and the
future cash flows. Future payments reduce the principal; no interest expense is recorded by
the debtor.
If the carrying amount of the payable is less than the future cash flows, no restructuring gain
is recognized by the debtor. A new effective-interest rate is calculated that equates the
present value of the future cash flows with the carrying amount of the debt. A part of the
future cash flows is recorded as interest expense by the debtor.

Pr. 14-126—Bond discount amortization.
On June 1, 2011, Everly Bottle Company sold $1,000,000 in long-term bonds for $877,600. The

IFRS Short Answer:
1. Briefly describe some of the similarities and differences between U.S. GAAP and IFRS with
respect to the accounting for liabilities.
1. Among the similarities are: (1) IFRS requires that companies present current and non-
current liabilities on the face of the balance sheet, with current liabilities generally presented
in order of liquidity, (2) Both GAAPs prohibit the recognition of liabilities for future losses; (3)
IFRS and U.S. GAAP are similar in the treatment of asset retirement obligations (AROs), and
(4) IFRS and U.S. GAAP are similar in their treatment of contingencies.
Although the two GAAPs are similar with respect to the above topics, there are differences,
including: (1) Under IFRS, the measurement of a provision related to a contingency is based
on the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation. If a range of
estimates is predicted and no amount in the range is more likely than any other amount in the
range, the ‘mid-point’ of the range is used to measure the liability. In U.S. GAAP, the

lOMoARcPSD|5556729
minimum amount in a range is used; (2) IFRS permits recognition of a restructuring liability,
once a company has committed to a restructuring plan. U.S. GAAP has additional criteria
(i.e., related to communicating the plan to employees), before a restructuring liability can be
established; (3) the recognition criteria for an asset retirement obligation are more stringent
under U.S. GAAP—the ARO is not recognized unless there is a present legal obligation and
the fair value of the obligation can be reasonably estimated; and (4) the criteria for
recognizing contingent assets for insurance recoveries are recognized if probable; IFRS
requires the recovery be “virtually certain,” before recognition of an asset is permited.
2. Briefly discuss how accounting convergence efforts addressing liabilities is related to the
IASB/FASB conceptual framework project.
2. The IASB and FASB are working on a conceptual framework project, part of which will
examine the definition of a liability. In addition, this project will address the difference in
measurements used between IFRS and U.S. GAAP for contingent liabilities. Also, in its
project on business combinations, the IASB is considering changing its definition of a
contingent asset to converge with U.S. GAAP.
