On January 1, 2016, Unnatural Stone issued $400 million of its 8% bonds for
$368 million. The bonds were priced to yield 10%. Interest is payable
semiannually on June 30 and December 31. Unnatural Stone records interest at
the effective rate and elected the option to report these bonds at their fair value.
On December 31, 2016, the fair value of the bonds was $376 million as
determined by their market value on the NYSE. Unnatural determined that
$2,000,000 of the increase in fair value was due to a decline in general interest
rates.
