On December 31, 2020, Pina Company signed a $1,056,300 note to Grouper Bank. The market interest rate at that time was 11%. The stated interest rate on the note was 9%, payable annually. The note matures in 5 years. Unfortunately, because of lower sales, Pina’s financial situation worsened. On December 31, 2022, Grouper Bank determined that it was probable that the company would pay back only $633,780 of the principal at maturity. However, it was considered likely that interest would continue to be paid, based on the $1,056,300 loan.

1. Determine the amount of cash Pina received from the loan on December 31, 2020. (Round present value factors to 5 decimal places, e.g. 0.52513 and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.)

2. Determine the loss on impairment that Grouper Bank should recognize on December 31, 2022. (Round present value factors to 5 decimal places, e.g. 0.52500 and final answer to 0 decimal places, e.g. 5,275.)
