Explanation:

The Journal entry is given below :-

Bonds payable                                      $2,000,000

      To common stock                          $1,000,000

      To Discount on common stock     $30,000

      To Paid in capital                            $970,000

The calculation of bonds payable, common stock is below:-

For bonds payable            

= 2,000 × $1,000

= $2,000,000

For common stock

= 2,000 × 50 × $10

= $1,000,000

For paid in capital

= $2,000,000 - ($1,000,000 - $30,000)

= $970,000
