    I think there’s too much information which you’re not giving me – where have you found the q – give me a reference or a name

    the question was sent to me as well but here is the full question { The 2% Debenture was issued on 1 oct 2008 under term that provide for large premium upon redemption in 2011. The finance dapartment has calculated that the effective interest rate of this type of debt instrument is 6% per annum. Kasabian also paid in cash issue cost of $1.5 million; these have yet to be accounted for. Kasabian intend to hold these debentures to maturity. In Trial balance as at 31 March 2009… 2% Debenture 2011..$140,000, Debenture interest paid $1400}. thanks

    looks like we should be accruing $2,800 (( 6% x 140,000 x 6/12 ) – 1,400 already accounted for )

    this 2,800 will add on to the 140,000 and make the long term liability 142,800
