Solution

Net income for year                                                        $10,350,000

Add: Adjustment for interest (net of tax) $236,082*

                                                                                        $10,586,082

*Maturity value                                                                $5,390,000

Stated rate X 7%

Cash interest                                                                      377,300

Discount amortization

[(1.00 – .97) X $5,390,000 X 1/10]                                       16,170

Interest expense 393,470

1 – tax rate (40%) X .60

After-tax interest $236,082
