Required:
A. When does a convertible bond have a beneficial conversion feature that is not within the cash conversion subsection of ASC 470? Describe how these bonds are accounted for on issuance and discuss the rationale for this treatment.
B. Are bonds that do not have a beneficial conversion feature accounted for in the same manner as those that do? If not, how and why are they accounted for differently?
