(a)if there are any warrants issued and outstanding against any of the funds of the abandoned and abolished county, such money shall be applied in payment of such warrants and interest;
(b)if there are no warrants outstanding but district bonds have been issued under the provisions of 7-2-2745 (2), 7-2-2747 , and 7-2-2748 , then the money shall be deposited in the sinking and interest fund for district bonds;
