    cash 84,000,000 debit

    discount on BP 1,250,000 debit

    bonds payable 80,000,000 credit

    warrant of CS 5,250,000 credit

    Explanation:

    bond (1,000 x 105/100) 1050 93.75% (1050/1120)

    warrant ($7 x 10 per share) 70 6.25% (70/1120)

    Total per share 1120

    Cash proceeds: 80,000 x 1,000 x 105/100 = 84,000,000

    Bonds x 93.75 = 78,750,000

    Warrant x 6.25 = 5,250,000

    Bonds face value 80,000,000

    proceeds 78,750,000

    discount 1,250,000

    journal entry
