Answer:

Find attached amortization table Hart Company bonds.

Explanation:

The amortization schedule starts with cash proceeds received from bondholders of $127,123,then adds interest expense to the cash proceeds using 15% effective interest rat i.e 15%*$127,123 and thereafter deducts interest payment which is 16% of face value  i.e 16% *$123,000.

The premium amortization in each year is interest payment minus the interest expense.
