It really depends on how much is the premium paid. Effectively if the premium paid is higher than the par value of the bonds issued, the annual interest expense would be relatively lower. Another perspective is that since that both the bonds and its premium uses effective interest method, considering all factors remain the same, the annual interest expense will remain unchanged. Premium of the bond should be captialized within the holders of the bonds and amortized over the years in which the manner best represents. Issuer of the bonds generally do not captialize the premium of the bond separately. You should also note that the bonds issued are not compound financial instruments or contain any embedded derivates.

Joint lease agreement and you have vacated the apartment with the other renter still occupying the premises what are your responsibilities as far as rent goes?

First, you might already be breaking your lease. Some leases have a clause that both signees must occupy the property. Read your lease to find out. As far as your rent responsibility, as far as the landlord is concerned, you are just as responsible for paying today as the day you moved in. Your name is on the lease, making you a party to the payments. Should the person who is left in the apartment be late or default entirely, you will be held responsible not only for 1/2 but for all the payments. (if they can't get money from one, they get it from the other) You will also be responsible for any payments assessed because of damage done to the property at the end of the lease term. You may want to consider speaking to the landlord about having your name removed from the lease, though they do not have to comply. The lease is a contract. You can ask them to void the lease and have the person who remained in the property sign a new lease without you on it. Good Luck.
