Interest on bonds may be payable annually, semiannually, or quarterly. Most pay interest semiannually. 12-10 11-10 2 • Bond Characteristics and Terminology When all bonds of an issue mature at the same time, they are called term bonds. • If the maturity dates are spread over several dates, they are called serial bonds. • Bonds that may be exchanged for other securities are called convertible bonds. 12-11 11-11 2 Bond Characteristics and Terminology • Bonds that a corporation reserves the right to redeem before their maturity are called callable bonds. • Bonds issued on the basis of general credit of the corporation are debenture bonds. 12-12 11-12 2 Proceeds from Issuing Bonds The market or effective rate of interest is determined by transactions between buyers and sellers of similar bonds. The market rate of interest is affected by a variety of factors, including investors’ expectations of current and future economic conditions. 12-13 11-13 2 MARKET RATE = CONTRACT RATE Selling price of bond = $1,000 If the contract rate equals the market rate of interest, the bonds will sell at their face amount. 12-14 11-14 2 MARKET RATE > CONTRACT RATE Selling price of bond < $1,000 – Discount If the market rate is higher than the contract rate, the bonds will sell at a discount. 12-15 11-15 2 MARKET < CONTRACT RATE Selling price of bond > $1,000 + Premium If the market rate is lower than the contract rate, the bonds will sell at a premium. 12-16 11-16 3 Bonds Issued at Face Amount On January 1, 2009, Eastern Montana Communications Inc. issued for cash $100,000 of 12%, five-year bonds; interest payable semiannually. The market rate of interest is 12%. 12-17 11-17 3 Since the bond rate of interest and the market rate of interest are the same, the bonds will sell at their face amount. 12-18 11-18 3 Every six months (on June 30 and December 31) after the bonds are issued, interest of $6,000 ($100,000 × .12 × 6/12) is paid. 12-19 11-19 3 The bond matured on December 31, 2013.

Unlike bonds, a note payment consists of payment of a portion of the amount initially borrowed (the principal) and payment of interest on the outstanding balance. 12-21 11-21 5 12-22 11-22
