A

Step 1 first we need to calc the interest income

Interest 456,200 x 10% = 45,620
Face Value 500,000 x 8% = 40,000 = 5,620

CV for Year 1 456,000
discount Y1 5,620
= 461,820 CV for Year 1

Step 2 first we need to calc the interest income for Y2

Interest 461,820 x 10% = 46,182
Face Value 500,000 x 8% = (40,000) = 6,182

             Year 2 CV   461,820  Discounted amorti.       6,182  = 468,002 CV for year 2
