(b) Recepción de intereses anuales y amortización del descuento

Para calcular los intereses y la amortización del descuento, primero necesitamos determinar el interés efectivo y el interés contractual.

  1. Interés contractual anual:

    • Valor nominal de los bonos: €95,000
    • Tasa de interés contractual: 9%
    • Interés anual: €95,000 * 9% = €8,550

  2. Interés efectivo anual:

    • Valor en libros inicial de la inversión: €97,978
    • Tasa de interés efectiva: 11%
    • Interés efectivo anual: €97,978 * 11% = €10,777.58

  3. Amortización del descuento:

    • Amortización del descuento: Interés efectivo - Interés contractual
    • Amortización del descuento: €10,777.58 - €8,550 = €2,227.58

La entrada en el diario para registrar la recepción de intereses y la amortización del descuento el 31 de diciembre de 2022 sería:
