Explanation:
First we discount the note to get the present value of the note.
[tex]\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV[/tex]
Maturity $600,000.00
time 5 years
rate 0.10
[tex]\frac{600000}{(1 + 0.1)^{5} } = PV[/tex]
PV 372,552.7938
(acquisition - salvage) / useful life = depreciation
(372,552.80 - 70,000) / 5 = depreciation per year
dep = 75,638.2
Interest for the year
372,552.80 x .10 = 37,255.28
