When the bonds are issued at 95, this means that they are being issued at 95% of their face value and the cash received will be 95% of the face value which will be = 800000 * 0.95 = 760000

This means that the bonds are issued at a discount to face value and the entry will be to record the cash received as debit for 760000 and the bonds payable which is a liability as credit of 800000. The difference is the discount on issuance of bonds and will be debited by,

Discount = 800000 - 760000 => $40000.

When the bonds are issued at 105, this means that they are being issued at 105% of their face value and the cash received will be 105% of the face value which will be = 800000 * 1.05 = 840000

This means that the bonds are issued at a premium to the face value and the entry will be to record the cash received as debit for 840000 and the bonds payable which is a liability as credit of 800000. The difference is the premium on issuance of bonds and will be credited by,

Premium = 840000 - 800000 => $40000.
