Answer:

Dr cash   $660,000

Cr bonds payable       $660,000

Dr interest expense     $ 39,600.00  

Cr interest payable                           $39,600.00  

Explanation:

The issue of the bonds at face value implies that cash proceeds equal the face value of $660,000 which is then debited to cash account and credited to bonds payable.

The interest due on the bonds on 31st December payable on 1st January 2021 =face value*coupon rate

face value is $660,000

coupon rate is 6%

interest=$660,000*6%=$39,600.00
