    Hello Mike

    Thank you so much for your lectures and notes. I have gone all the way through them and am now doing the Mini exercises in the back.

    I cannot follow this one from p214 of the notes with the answer below as well;

    The company issued a $25 million 6% loan note on 1 October, 2011. Issue costs were $1 million and these have been charged to
    administrative expenses. The loan will be redeemed on 30 September, 2014 at a premium which gives an effective interest rate on the
    loan of 8%.
    What finance charge will appear in the statement of profit or loss for the year

    24m @ 8% = 1.92m
    24m @ 6% =1.50m
    Difference 420,000
    Dr Loan interest (finance charges) 420,000
    Cr 6% loan account (liabilities) 420,000
    Loan interest in the profit or loss account 192,000
    6% loan on statement of financial position 24,420,000

    I realise the issue costs are deducted but 24m @6% is not £1.5m should it be £25? I started on this with the December notes but the March ones have the same figures.

    Guidance please and thanks in advance.

    Yes, it should read “$25 @ 6%” not $24

    Also, I believe that “Loan interest in the profit or loss account 192,000” should be $1,920,000

    They’re on my list of corrections already, but thanks for reminding me
