Q

Investment in Debt Securities

So in computing effective interest method (Amortization), how to compute:

  1. Interest Income
  2. Interest Receivable
  3. What is the difference?
A
  1. Interest Income
    =PV x Effective Interest Rate
  2. Interest Receivable
    =Face Amount x Nominal Rate
  3. Amortization = Interest Income - Interest Receivable.
    -Which will add or deduct on the PV, depending if with discount or premium
    -Basta regardless, the carrying amount of the bonds should be equal to the face amount
    -So when the bonds are settled, the investment account is simply credited at face amount equal to the cash received for the principal
