Problem 1: (Issuance and Conversion of Bonds)

For each of the unrelated transactions described below, present the entry(ies) required to record each transaction.

1. Coyle Corp. issued $10,000,000 par value 10% convertible bonds at 99. If the bonds had not been convertible, the company's investment banker estimates they would have been sold at 95. Expenses of issuing the bonds were $70,000.

2. Lambert Company issued $10,000,000 par value 10% bonds at 98. One detachable stock warrant was issued with each $100 par value bond. At the time of issuance, the warrants were selling for $4.

3. Sepracor, Inc. called its convertible debt in 2012. Assume the following related to the transaction: The 11%, $10,000,000 par value bonds were converted into 1,000,000 shares of $1 par value common stock on July 1, 2012. On July 1, there was $55,000 of unamortized discount applicable to the bonds, and the company paid an additional $75,000 to the bondholders to induce conversion of all the bonds. The company records the conversion using the book value method.

Problem 2: (Conversion of Bonds)

On January 1, 2011, Trillini Corporation issued $3,000,000 of 10-year, 8% convertible debentures at 102. Interest is to be paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Each $1,000 debenture can be converted into eight shares of Trillini Corporation $100 par value common stock after December 31, 2012.

On January 1, 2013, $600,000 of debentures are converted into common stock, which is then selling at $110. An additional $600,000 of debentures are converted on March 31, 2013. The market price of the common stock is then $115. Accrued interest at March 31 will be paid on the next interest date.

Bond premium is amortized on a straight-line basis.

Each bond carried two detachable warrants. Each warrant was for one share of common stock at a specified option price of $15 per share.

Problem 4: (Issuance, Exercise, and Termination of Stock Options)

On January 1, 2011, Scooby Corporation granted 10,000 options to key executives. Each option allows the executive to purchase one share of Scooby's $5 par value common stock at a price of $20 per share. The options were exercisable within a 2-year period beginning January 1, 2013, if the grantee is still employed by the company at the time of the exercise. On the grant date, Scooby's stock was trading at $25 per share, and a fair value option-pricing model determines total compensation to be $450,000.

On May 1, 2013, 9,000 options were exercised when the market price of Scooby's stock was $30 per share. The remaining options lapsed in 2015 because executives decided not to exercise their options.
