c. 1,950,000
d. 1,910,000
Answer:
c .
Step-by-Step explanation
C is the correct answer.
Accrued interest = Face value x interest rate x time = (2000 x 1000) x 8% x 3/12 = 40,000
Price of the bond = Face value x issued price in % = (2,000 x 1000) x 99% = 1,980,000
Net proceeds = Price + Accrued interest - Bond issued costs
Net proceeds = 1,980,000 + 40,000 - 70,000
Net proceeds = 1,950,000
