Solution

The journal entry for this situation would be as follows:

  1. Record the payment of the redemption price:

Debit: Debentures 130,000Debit:PremiumonRedemptionofDebentures130,000 Debit: Premium on Redemption of Debentures 2,600 (130,0002Credit:Bank/Cash130,000 * 2%) Credit: Bank/Cash 132,600

  1. Remove the carrying amount of the debentures:

Debit: Debentures 130,000Credit:Debentures130,000 Credit: Debentures 130,000

Please note that the premium on redemption of debentures is calculated as the redemption price (102% of face value) less the carrying amount of the debentures (100% of face value). The interest payment has already been made and recorded, so it does not affect these entries.
