Answer:

C). $265,000

Explanation:

Given that,

The price of issued bonds = $3,500,000

Contract rate of interest = 7%

Time period = 6 months

∴ Cash paid every six months = $3,500,000 x 7% x 6/12

                                                = $122,500.

Amortization of discount every six months = $10,000

The amount of interest expense or total liabilities associated with the bond issue in the amount of:

$122,500 + $10,000 x 2 = $265,000
