    Can someone explain to me why increases and decreases to unamortized bond discounts are related to operating activities?

    Thanks.

    Never mind. I figured it out. The journal entry would be:

    Dr. Interest expense

    Cr. Bond discount

    Cr. Cash

    And interest expense is a component of operating activities when using the indirect method.
