Answer:

cash             515,000 debit

    bonds payable             500,000 credit

    Premium on Bonds         15,000 credit

Explanation:

to know the cash proceeds fro mthe issuance of the bonds we will multiply the face value by the point issued:

500,000 x 103 / 100 = 515,000

As the amount collected is higher than face value we reocgnize a Premium on Bonds Payable for the difference:

515,000 - 500,000 = 15,000
