Expert Solution

1)

Face Value of Note = $800,000
Annual Stated Interest Rate = 10.00%
Semiannual Stated Interest Rate = 5.00%
Semiannual Stated Interest = 5.00% * $800,000
Semiannual Stated Interest = $40,000
Annual Market Interest Rate = 8.00%
Semiannual Market Interest Rate = 4.00%
Time to Maturity = 3 years
Semiannual Period = 6
Using financial calculator:
Nper 6
Rate 4%
PMT 40000
FV 800000
=PV(A301,A300,A302,A303,0) $841,937.09
Carrying Value of Note $841,937
Since Carrying value or present value of note is higher than face value of the note, it is a premium note
