PURCHASE IN THE OPEN MARKET
At times a company can buy its own debentures in the open market. This practice should be allowed by the terms of issue.
This brings a financial sense if the market value is below the present value of the further interest payments plus the sum payable on redemption.
The debentures can be bought back for cancellation. The purchase of debentures in the open market can be ex-int or cum – int.
If it is ex – int, then this means it is without interest, and therefore interest has to be calculated and added to the purchase price.
And if it’s cum – int, then this means it is with interest and therefore for recording purpose, the interest included should be deducted from the total price paid.
