Bond payable Issued bonds for 1,900,000

cash

Explanation:

1) The corporation issues 1,900 bonds that have a face value of 1,000 and issues them as face value so the the cash that they get from the issuance of the bonds is equal to the number of bonds multiplied by the face value of each bond and the same amount is also the bonds payable that they have to pay back in the future.

1,900*1000=1,900,000

So Monty Corp will debit 1,900,000 cash as it is receiving 1,900,000 cash for the bond issuance and will credit bonds payable by 1,900,000 as it has to pay back this amount at a later date.

This is the only entry related to the bond which will be made on January 1 as the interest will be paid next January and it will be recorded then.
