Answer: credit of $213876.80 to Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par.

Explanation:

First and foremost, we have to calculate the exercised ratio which will be:

= Converted value for bonds / Total value if convertible bonds

= $1250000 / $4050000

The unamortized premium will then be calculated thus:

= $1250000 + ($288000 × 0.3086) - (1250 × $30 × 30)

= $213876.80

Therefore, credit of $213876.80 to Paid-in Capital in Excess of Par.
