Final Question









b. Explain why the company was able to issue the bonds for $27,414,835 rather than for the face amount of $25,100,000.

The bonds sell for more than their face amount because the market rate of interest is    the contract rate of interest. Investors   willing to pay more for bonds that pay a higher rate of interest (contract rate) than the rate they could earn on similar bonds (market rate).
