PVIFA (8.5%/2 , 8) = [(1+i)^n-1] / [i (1+i)^n] = [(1+0.0425)^8 -1] / [ 0.0425 * (1.0425^8)] = 6.66 PVIF (8.5%/2, 8)= 1/(1+i)^n = 1/(1.0425^8)=0.7168 Journal entry to record issuance of bonds Cash $579,930 Discount on bonds $20,070 Bonds payable $600,000 Step 3 (Using effective amortization) Interest expense=unpaid balance x
