How was Kohl$$s balance sheet impacted by the $$600$ million bond issuance on the date

of issuance?

$2.$ How much in cash interest would Kohl$$s pay on this bond issuance on Nov. $15,2020$

$($i$.$e$.,$ the first half$-$year interest$)?$ How would the payment of cash interest impact Kohl$$s

income statement and balance sheet?

$3.$ As we know that retail has been hit particularly hard by the pandemic as stores are

forced to closed, unemployment rises, and people are not spending. And we expect the

impact to continue to have a material adverse effect on Kohl$$s financial condition and

results of operations for the year of $2020$ and beyond. Why do you think creditors were

willing to purchase Kohl$$s bonds?
