Note 1 :-
Face value of Note = $409,570
Present value of Note = Face value of Note × Present value (n = 8 years , i = 12%)
Present value (n = 8 years , i = 12% ) = 0.40388
Present value of Note = $ 409,570 × 0.40388 = $165,417.1316
Present value of annual interest = Annual Interest × Present value of Annuity ( n = 8 years , i = 12% )
Annual Interest = Face value of Note × Interest rate
Annual Interest = $409,570 × 3% = $12287.1
Present value of Annuity ( n = 8 years , i = 12% ) = 4.96764
Present value of annual interest = $12,287.1 × 4.96764 = $ 61,037.8894
Services revenue = Present value of Note + Present value of Annual interest
Services revenue = $165,417.1316 + $61,037.8894
Services revenue = $226,455
