    Dr Bond Receivable 66,000

    Dr Interest Receivable 990

    Cr Cash 66,990

    (to record the purchase of Iceline, Inc. 's bonds)

    Explanation:

    The purchase include the following deliverables:

    + The bond at the price of $66,000

    + The interest receivables that the seller (s) is/are eligible to receive, yet, they transfer the rights to the buyers. This amount is recorded at $990 as Buyer's receivable because as bond holder, Buyers are eligible to receive that. Noted that this is not qualified to be recorded as Interest Income for Bond's Buyers because the Buyers do not hold the bond at all before the purchase, thus, they should not recorded any interest income from the coupon receipt.

    => Total Cash spent for the purchase is $66,990 ($66,000 + $990).
