A company issued bonds with detachable common stock warrants. The issue price exceeded the sum of the warrants’ fair value and face value of the bonds. The fair value of the bonds cannot be determined. What value, if any, should be assigned to the warrants?
The fair value of the warrants

Because the warrants’ fair value is known, the remainder of the issuance price not allocated to the warrants is allocated to the bonds.
