    The journal entry to record the bond issuance is shown below:

    Explanation:

    The journal entry to record the bond issuance is as:

    Cash A/c ... Dr $420,000

    Bonds Payable A/c ... Cr $420,000

    Being the bonds issued

    As the bonds are issued by the company so cash is coming into the business, which is an asset and any increase in asset is debited. Therefore, the cash account is debited. And cash is received against the bonds payable, so the account of bonds payable is credited.
