I'll say it again, I love the manner in which you teach, my brain just easily digests what you say to me. Maybe it's your comforting and guiding tone or the structure of your words and the meticulous placement of your words but I don't think I would feel as confident as I do in my accounting class now if you hadn't made these videos. Your teaching style makes me feel welcome and as though it's okay that I don't know. Thank you kindly. I appreciate you more than I could express.
Honestly, I have watched 15 videos to try and understand this. I just wanted to thank you so much from a struggling student working remotely during Covid. You are a god-send!
You’re an amazing teacher. I’ve abandoned my university’s course content and I’m learning from you on this topic. I appreciate what you are doing so much.
I've been trying to understand this topic for 2 weeks and although my Professor is a nice man, his explanations are quite complex and confusing. This helped me more than I can express. Thank you so much!
Got my Intermediate Financial Accounting book in the mail today! Doesnt seem to have any journal entries and basic topics like that but I'm still finishing this series, I feel more confident diving into it with some grasp on the basics.
I'd love to hear what you stuggled with the most while learning accounting, especially for the CPA exam. I'm just watching casually after graduating to reinforce the knowledge and it brings back so many memories (fingers crossed this balances)
For me it wasn't a topic so much as discipline - it was a major grind it was hard to stay motivated! Kudos to you for going through it - I know it's challenging!!
I had to watch this one 3 times. I've never taken an accounting course or anything so just familiarizing with the terms and understanding the whys takes a little doing. Overall these videos are fun!
Professor, would it be correct to say, when we issue a Bond at a discount we debit cash and Discount to the Balance sheet? Thereafter wecamortize the discount amount over the tenor of the bond. Which would mean that the discount is an Asset. Though its part of non current liability...not sure if my question even makes sense...
A discount is a “contra liability” - it reduces the obligation of the liability. You issue a $1,000 bond with a $50 discount. You get 950 cash. Your bond payable is 1000 and the discount on the bond is 50. Bond payable, net is 1000-50=950.
Why do I have to use same interest expense, discount amortization etc dor fiscal year end Sep 30 and for second interest payment on Feb 1? Greetings from Germany
bc the calculation for feb 1 2025 includes calculation for sept 30th 2024 as well. so you would use the same expense, discount etc. (aug 1st to feb 1st = 6months. but you're trying to calculate for sept, so its aug and sept = 2months. )
When writing journal entry. You put discount or premium with the interest expense and cash. Are the Discount and premium account a liability account or fall under gains or loss in the income statement?
I have a big problem in understanding why we calculate at percent of market (92561*3% why?) we did this to calculate discount ? Why . i understood the technique but ignore reason .
as the bond was discounted because of the inflation in the market interest rate of bond. hence we calculate the market % as it was due to its inflation that the bonds were sold at a discount in the first place

It's got to do with the discount or premium.

Hello, Professor, 23:06, Can we write Interest exp in Aug 1 as Dividends in our journal entry?
No - dividends are different from interest - bonds do not create dividends.
@@Tony-Bell Ok, Thanks Teacher, Have a great day
This is great! Thanks! Could you make another one with the effects on CF statements?

Discount and Premium add to the bond amount. So Bond - Discount = Bond, Net. Bond + premium = Bond, Net.
Thanks
Are there different methods do doing bond issued at discount? Do you have to use the chart you created?
This is called the "effective interest rate method". There is also the "straight line method" but I don't cover it in my vids.
Thank you this is amazing. Really helpful.

present value of interest= cashflow(1-(1+r)^-20/R , 2500(1-.5537)/R, = 37,193.63 ( this represents the present value of the interest that will be paid)

** if you like what I have shared please give TONY a thumbs up for all the great lessons he has provided.**
I’ve been wondering, why do we multiply by the market rate when calculating the interest expense?
It's got to do with the discount or premium. When we issue the bonds, investors won't buy until they are receiving the market rate - so I issue a 100,000 4% bond when the market rate of interest is 6%. So they issue at a discount and I get 90,000. The extra 10K (the discount) is extra interest, meaning I pay back 6%. The size of the discount is dictated by the market rate. Sorry - I know it's a complex idea, and it's difficult to type out!

I do hope the good Prof is serious about his intents to be back in 2116.
hahahah I loved the part where you are going to freeze your brain!! Thank you for your explanations :)
What did you say about the brain frozen thing?
What would I do if the problem I'm working on doesn't provide a bond quote? How would I figure out how much money ill actually receive?
It ought to give you something. If it doesn't you may need to calculate it - it's fairly complicated - but I'm sure you can find a video tutorial - "Calculating bond price"
Thank you so much for this!
May someone pls tell me how could I find interest expense on sep30 if Idk market rate ?
Very helpful. Thank you so much!
This is a though method to wrap my head around. I have a question. What happens with the Bonds payable account?
it decreases i.e debited and the cash is credited ( decreases) on making the payments for the promised bonds
Bond payable will stay on your Balance until you paid it back. Like in MIT example, $500ml bond payable will stay as a liability for 110 years. MIT will be paying only interests on it. Your question was a year ago, I am sure you know it by now:)
